Busch looks to Norway on healthcare: They should not beat us in this too

KD's most important election promise is that the state will take over responsibility for healthcare. In Norway, that process took less than two years. It could also happen in Sweden, says KD leader Ebba Busch.

It can't be that the Norwegians can beat us in both football and healthcare, she says.

Today, 21 regions are responsible for healthcare, which leads to unequal care, according to KD, which wants to learn from Denmark and Norway.

Letting the state take over responsibility for healthcare is a major organisational change, which few other parties support. Government colleague M says no, but Busch points out that SD supports the reform and that L has opened the door to a change, if the state also takes over responsibility for schools.

We have also heard a different degree of openness from S, even if we then need to compromise on the organisational structure. But we are prepared to do that in that case, says Busch.
