Khaled Abdel Ghaffar: 4M treatment decisions funded yearly
The Minister of Health, Khaled Abdel Ghaffar, spoke about the efforts made to provide treatment funded by the state in Egypt. He clarified that the government issues around 4 million decisions annually to facilitate installment payments for treatment costs, including medications, cancer treatments, and medical surgeries. He confirmed that the cost of these services has risen from 3 billion Egyptian pounds in 2014 to 33 billion pounds now, reflecting an expansion in coverage for the underprivileged. He explained that citizens receive treatment through three main channels: health insurance, state-funded treatment decisions, or out-of-pocket payments in private and medium-level hospitals. He also pointed out that the ministry has a responsibility to address issues faced by beneficiaries, noting that the majority of decisions are issued daily, though some cases experience delays or lack proper access to information.
