Unfortunately, the latest report (https://lnkd.in/eriE95Tw) shows that Switzerland when compared internationally is losing commercial competitiveness and attractiveness to launch new innovative medicines; unfortunately and ultimately, the ones that are paying the price are patients. This hiccup is mainly caused by the Federal Office of Health (BAG). According to the Federal Office of Statistics about one third of the Swiss professionally active population is working part-time, while according to the BAG ‘s website their part-time working force is two-thirds. How can you run effectively a key national function that monitors and controls the Swiss health with an organization that has about two-thirds of the working force working part-time??? Maybe you could, with a top notch federal fully integrated health digital infrastructure, but here as well we are ages behind others… However, on a positive note, what we do have are happy wagging dogs in the offices of the BAG…. The health of a Nation is a natural resource and a strategic asset for the future, and as such should be prioritized!
