Health Minister: Waiting lists persist with 300,000 decisions monthly
The article discusses the efforts of the Egyptian Ministry of Health in addressing the waiting lists for patients since the launch of its initiative in 2019. Through this program, more than 3.6 million treatments have been performed at a cost exceeding 33 billion Egyptian pounds. The ministry affirms that the system for treating waiting lists will continue indefinitely due to the nature of the illnesses and the ongoing need for treatment. It covers specialized fields such as heart surgeries, oncology, and kidney and liver transplants. Approximately 300,000 treatment decisions are issued monthly, with a processing speed rate of 90%. Technologies like video conferencing are employed to facilitate case evaluations, although some cases may still experience delays of up to a week. The government emphasizes that any citizen listed in the system will receive medical services and that efforts are ongoing to review cases and provide continuous treatment. It also highlights its ongoing management of funding burdens and the continuous updating of these programs.
