Response to Comment on the Publication: Lazarevik V, Kasapinov B. Medical Doctors’ Attitudes towards Pay-For-Reporting in Macedonia: A Web-Based Cross-Sectional Survey. Maced J Med Sci. 2012;5(4):437-443.

In our view, this letter does not argue with the substance of our study, but with the title that can be debated endlessly. Vladimir Lazarevik is not involved in the creation of any health care policy since August 2008. He has been invited for initial meeting, but never accepted nor received official decision to be part of the Committee for Improvement in the Healthcare Sector. Vladimir has been deputy minister of health, and has never participated in design, development or implementation of any similar reform idea or any other project that has created so deep frustration among the majority of the doctors in the country.
