Developments in the Healthcare Sector and Christina Giannaki's Departure

March 1, 2025

The healthcare sector is in crisis following the announcement by the Health Insurance Organization to sign a contract with Christina Giannaki, who is retiring in a month. Despite her experience, the transition process for the program of sending patients abroad has not been completed, and immediate solutions are needed. The Health Minister noted that the HIO was not prepared for this undertaking, despite being informed since 2022. The situation requires quick resolution to ensure the continuity of the program.
