No-confidence motion against the ÖÄK vice president: High pay, long taxi rides.
In the Austrian Medical Chamber, the conflict surrounding Harald Mayer is coming to a head. According to reporting by Falter, Mayer is said to have over years accumulated a monthly total remuneration of around €26,000—a sum that is said to have consisted of salary and payments from the Federal and the State Medical Chambers. In addition, Mayer is said to have frequently used a taxi for his regular trips between Schärding and Vienna. Up to two of these trips, each about 200 kilometers long, per week are said to have been billed as business trips.
The Lower Austrian Chamber regards this as conduct that harms the reputation of the medical profession, and has therefore announced the motion of no confidence. The plans were confirmed on Sunday to the APA. A two-thirds majority would be necessary for a removal. Mayer's regular term in the Upper Austrian Chamber expires at the end of the year, while in the Austrian Federal Medical Chamber it expires in March.
The move doesn't come as a complete surprise. Mayer had already been under pressure last year after he demanded the reintroduction of an ambulance fee with no cap. Patients who go to a hospital outpatient clinic without a referral or without prior contact with the Hotline 1450 should, in his view, bear all costs themselves. The Ministry of Health, the ÖGK, as well as the Federal and the Vienna Medical Chambers, rejected this proposal clearly.
Whether the Kurie will decide on Thursday remains unclear. One thing is certain: The discussion about money, responsibility and the public image of the medical profession will not leave the chamber anytime soon. Should Mayer be forced to resign, at least the taxi operators will miss him.
