– People can’t afford it these days. I hope Jonas has learned by now.

Politician Rødt Seher Aydar doesn’t like the prime minister going to private doctors, as Dagbladet was able to say last week. One hour at the Volvat-run private institute Støre costs a minimum of NOK 1,700.

– Støre does the same as everyone else with good advice – they sneak in the queue. But he had to stand neatly in line and wait for the help he needed. Not everyone can buy their way out of the healthcare queue, and the Prime Minister should definitely show solidarity with all of these people, Aydar further said.

During a charity match during the Norwegian Cup, Ap’s boss got a real hit when he had to take a penalty kick. The ball passes through the goal in the middle of the goalkeeper – a penalty shooter’s nightmare. Støre told Dagbladet that he had no regrets about using a private doctor.

Taus Kjerkol

The Labor Party opposes further privatization of the health care system, which is also supported by the party’s program. Health Minister Ingvild Kjerkol (Ap) has even made it clear that the government should not “push the private sector” in the health care system.

Kjerkol, on the other hand, would not comment on Støre’s visits to private doctors. Nonetheless, Dagbladet realized that the case had attracted internal attention at Ap.

– The shop has important work, Aydar. Maybe he should be a little pragmatic here?

– Yes, he has an important job. But there are a lot of people in Norway who have important jobs, and they can’t just pay thousands of kroner to go to a private doctor, says Seher Aydar.

Go to a private doctor: – No bad conscience

I hope he learns

He called the visit a declaration of bankruptcy.

– Here we see that the problem, which was probably created by Erna Solberg, has not, however, been solved by Jonas Gahr Støre. I hope he sees that something has to be done about the health system when he has to buy private doctors.

– What do you hope he learns?

– That our health care system is full of holes.

– Støre said he had no regrets?

– Usually, I don’t think that people who buy personal services are a problem. But when the prime minister does, it will be different. He represents a government that says it wants to cut commercial services in the health care system. He represents ordinary people.

– The store should suffer in principle?

– No one should suffer in principle. That’s my point. No one, neither the common man nor the prime minister, has to pay to get better health care than others, Aydar said.

Challenging Hermstad for top jobs

Get training advice

Støre was clear that he had done nothing wrong.

– There are people operating in Norway who are completely allowed and I’m not blocking anyone.

– Isn’t this the offer that should be available in the public health system?

– I’m not sure that sports specialists will spend public time on it. For me, it’s important to get advice on how to get out of this and train it again.

Whether private health care has the desired effect on bad feet remains to be seen.

“I’m in training now and then we can hope it recovers,” said Støre.
