Abuse of GeSY in inpatient services in Cyprus
December 9, 2024
The latest report by the European Commission reveals the abuse of the General Health System (GeSY) in Cyprus regarding inpatient services, with Cyprus recording the second highest number of discharges in the EU. Although a high number of discharges may indicate timely patient service, there are concerns that a lower number of beds may lead to premature discharges. Meanwhile, the percentage of unmet health needs in Cyprus is almost zero, although dental services remain an exception. A gap is noted in the care of long-term patients.
