Health Minister on Foreign Investment Risks
In response to concerns about a part of the healthcare sector falling into the hands of non-Egyptian investors, Health Minister Khaled Abdel Ghaffar pointed out that the risk is negligible. He explained that the government controls the majority of the healthcare system through university hospitals, the Ministry of Health, the armed forces, and the private sector. He clarified that the private sector accounts for approximately 30% of hospital beds, and contracts with them are subject to a pricing regulation that is reviewed annually to prevent price hikes, along with strict oversight mechanisms implemented by specialized authorities. He also emphasized that all new hospitals, whether public or private, are subject to licensing and compliance with established standards to ensure the provision of high-quality healthcare services and prevent arbitrary price increases. This is part of the comprehensive health insurance system aimed at improving access and care for patients across Egypt.
