윤 "정부 로드맵에 따라 의료개혁의 길 갈것"

[서울=뉴시스] 조수정 기자 = 윤석열 대통령이 9일 서울 용산 대통령실 청사에서 열린 취임 2주년 기자회견에서 출입기자들의 질문에 답변하고 있다. 2024.05.09. [email protected]

윤석열 대통령은 9일 “정부는 저희가 생각하는 로드맵에 따라 뚜벅뚜벅 국민을 위한 의료개혁의 길을 걸어갈 것”이라고 밝혔다. 그러면서 “다행히 야당에서도 국민이 바라는 의료개혁에 공감을 표시해 큰 도움이 될 것 같다”고 말했다.

윤 대통령은 이날 오전 용산 대통령실에서 열린 ‘윤석열정부 2년 국민보고 및 기자회견’에서 “의대 증원 등 의료개혁은 폭발적으로 증가하는 의료 수요를 감안하고 지역·필수의료를 강화해나가야 한다는 상황에 비춰볼 때 더 이상 미룰 수 없는 과제임은 대부분 국민도 공감하고 있다고 생각한다”고 말했다.

윤 대통령은 “의료계와 1년 넘도록 정부 출범 직후부터 이 문제를 다뤄왔고, 어느날 갑자기 의사 ‘2000명’을 발표한 게 아니다”라고 강조했다.

윤 대통령은 “한 방에 해결할 수 있는 복안이 있다면 정부 당국이 30여년간 해결하지 못하고 왔겠나. 그런 것은 없다고 본다”며 “자유민주주의적 설득 방식에 따라서 이 문제를 풀어나갈 수밖에 없다”고 말했다.

그러나 윤 대통령은 의료계와의 소통이 원활하게 이뤄지지 않았다고 지적했다.

윤 대통령은 “개원의 권익을 대표하는 의사협회, 또 전공의협회, 병원협회 등 통일된 입장을 가지지 못하는 것은 대화의 걸림돌이고 의료계와 협의하는 데 매우 어려웠다”며 “1년 넘도록 진행하는 동안 한 번도 통일된 의견을 받아보지 못했고, 그렇다고 마냥 미룰 수 없다”고 했다.

그러면서 “정부는 저희가 생각하는 로드맵에 따라 뚜벅뚜벅 국민을 위한 의료개혁의 길을 걸어나갈 것”이라고 밝혔다.
