Request for Special Rates for Rheumatic Patients
March 20, 2025
Patients with rheumatic diseases are at risk of amputation due to the high cost of electricity. Representatives from the Cyprus Anti-Rheumatic Association requested special rates from the Electricity Authority for specific categories of patients, but the response was negative. There are serious consequences for patients if the proper temperature is not maintained in their environments. The committee plans to communicate with the Ministries to request the inclusion of these patients in the list of beneficiaries.
