A patient has been waiting for over two months for a specialist treatment, while their health is deteriorating. Many patients are also awaiting the approval of requests from the Health Insurance Organization due to a transfer of responsibilities that caused delays. The organization claims it is understaffed, while patients continue to wait for their medications. The president of the Cyprus Patients Association calls for recognition of responsibilities and resolution of the issue.
