New Plan to Limit Cesarean Sections in Cyprus
January 3, 2025
The Health Insurance Organization is implementing a new plan that provides incentives and disincentives for gynecologists, aimed at reducing unnecessary cesarean sections in Cyprus. Gynecologists can receive bonuses if they keep the number of cesareans within specified limits, while exceeding those limits can lead to reductions in their earnings of up to 35%. The plan will only apply to uncomplicated cesarean sections, and full implementation is expected after the completion of guidelines in 2025.
