MPs enjoy the bonus “unlimited medical expenses” : a severed vein

Italian parliamentarians have the privilege of free health expenses.

View like this one might think that it is not much. Because you think about ticket. Instead it is the fact that incredibly exacerbated expenses can be passed for this item for the citizen.

Nobody is being accused, ( their, The money for the complaints takes it from the citizen and you have to be careful).

But parliamentarians are also human, And therefore even among them there will always be someone who will abuse the privilege.

for example:

How many of the readers know doctors who would pass as medical expense what perhaps is just an aesthetic operation ?

How many hotels in tourist centers pass as cure of holiday stays ?

Practically, Behind the item shopping items can easily pass thousands of euros per year, without striving to think of false invoices, to the treatments of relatives registered to/to parliamentarians, to the holiday with the lover, etc. etc.

You have to put the spending roof, or better yet, Make him private insurance with medical policy, that cost no more than 3000 euros per year would certainly cost us less. Thus the insurances themselves will be supervised on the abuses, Since they would have to pay.

No global contract for the policies of all parliamentarians, that there would be the usual market, a fixed figure for everyone and arrange themselves. But if the immunity remains on false invoices, the scams will go to the detriment of the insurances that will download them to the other insured.

So no immunity for tax crimes connected to medical expenses, Like all citizens must be terrified (by name) from finance.
