Referring to the budget review process in the Islamic Council, the member of the Health and Treatme Commission of the Islamic Council clarified: In the issues related to the budget, it should be noted that the parliame and specialized commissions cannot impose a new financial burden on the governme. In other words, we cannot add a new cost to the coury’s public resources just by recognizing the importance of an issue.
He further added: However, if specialized, expert proposals based on field realities are preseed; It is possible that within the framework of available resources, transfers will be made and credits will be directed towards priority issues; Especially in a field like health, which is directly related to people’s life and quality of life.
Explaining the actions of the health and treatme committee of the parliame, he said: Considering the exte of health issues and the high volume of needs in the health and treatme sector, the health and treatme commission decided to prioritize some issues. Based on this, a list coaining about 64 specific and expert proposals was prepared and preseed to the Consolidation Commission.
The member of the Health and Medical Commission of the Islamic Council further poied out one of the most importa proposals of this commission and said: One of our serious proposals was to revive and create a budget line under the title of helping the university jihad to equip and modernize the breast cancer research ceer. The ceer known today as the National Cancer Research Institute.
In explaining the goals of this proposal, he stated: The goal is not simply to support a research ceer; Rather, the completion of the national network for preveion, early diagnosis and corol of common women’s cancers, as well as the developme of new treatmes throughout the coury, is considered. In this regard, the figure proposed by the health and treatme commission was to allocate a budget.
Referring to the history and performance of Jihad University in the field of health, the represeative of the people of Arak said: “Jihad University has seriously eered the field of preveion for many years and has also carried out valuable activities in the field of modern treatme methods. The visit of the members of the health and treatme commission to these ceers as well as the National Cancer Research Institute shows that this institution has acted very actively and effectively, relying on the scieific power of Iranian scieists and the support of promine scieific figures of the coury.
He further added: Considering the importance of preveion in the health system, especially breast cancer, which is one of the most common cancers in the coury; The Health and Medical Commission concluded that the targeted support of this group can play an importa role in reducing the burden of diseases and treatme costs.
In response to a question about the national research and developme infrastructure in the field of modern treatmes under the “National Cancer Research Institute”, Jamalian clarified: what was finally considered for university jihad; It was a comprehensive package that includes both equipping and renovating the research ceer and completing the national preveion network, early detection, corol of common women’s cancers, and the developme of new treatmes such as cell therapy and gene therapy.
He poied out: This iegrated view makes strengthening research infrastructure directly lead to the improveme of new technologies, the quality of medical services and the improveme of people’s health.
A member of the Parliame’s Health and Treatme Commission said about the review process of this proposal in the Consolidation Commission: If the members of the Consolidation Commission reach the conclusion that this issue has a higher priority, considering the importance of preveion and the position of health, they will definitely agree to it. But if other things are considered equal or even more importa, it will naturally become more difficult to make a decision.
In response to a question about the effects of the approval of this proposal in the parliame and its approval by the Guardian Council, Jamalian stated: Without doubt, the approval of such a resolution can have a very significa effect on the health of the coury. It is a proven scieific fact that the costs of preveion are much lower than the costs of treatme.
He coinued: “Unfortunately, due to the low share of health in the GDP, preveive and health programs in the Ministry of Health have faced limitations and there have been delays in some areas.” In this situation, institutions like University Jihad can play a very importa complemeary role.
The represeative of the people of Arak, referring to the performance of Jihad University, said: Although direct ery io the field of preveion and treatme was not among the initial missions of Jihad University, this institution has performed brillialy and carried out effective measures in rece years.
He added: “Today, we are witnessing the serious activities of the National Jihad University Cancer Research Ceer in the field of cell therapy, gene therapy, preveive measures, and scieific investmes, and due to the spread of academic Jihad branches across the coury, the possibility of early diagnosis, reducing treatme costs, and reducing the consequences of the disease has been provided for paties.”
In the end, Jamalian emphasized: Strengthening preveion, developing new treatmes and supporting domestic scieific and research ceers can both improve the quality of health services and reduce the financial pressure on the treatme system and families. We hope that this expert view will be taken io consideration in the process of approving the budget of the National Cancer Research Institute.
