Lebanese Health Minister Rakan Nassereddine opened the 2026 Quality Experts Forum, stressing that improving the quality of care and patient safety remains a priority despite budget constraints. He called for hospital accreditation to become mandatory in the future, after having remained voluntary. He announced updated standards for evaluating medicines and a contract with the Lebanese University to re-establish a reference pharmaceutical laboratory, which had been closed for more than 30 years. He also highlighted efforts to improve hospital coverage and medical oversight. Healthcare coverage needs are estimated at around $1 billion, compared with the $300 million available to the ministry, which pledged to cover the accreditation costs of any public hospital taking part in the process.
