Bulgarian Parliament Demands Security Data on Health Fund Leaders

Bulgaria's Parliament has issued a directive compelling the State Agency for National Security (DANS) to disclose information regarding the leadership of the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF). The order specifically demands data, including classified details, pertaining to the operations of NHIF governor Petko Stefanovski and his deputy, Momchil Mavrov.

This parliamentary action comes in the wake of requests from both Stefanovski and Mavrov to step down from their respective roles. The specifics of their reasons for seeking resignation have not been fully detailed, but the parliamentary inquiry suggests a level of scrutiny into their management and the fund's activities.

The mandate places DANS under obligation to furnish the requested information, potentially shedding light on the circumstances surrounding the NHIF leadership's decisions and the reasons behind their desire to resign. The parliamentary oversight aims to ensure transparency and accountability within the crucial health insurance system.
