New Criteria for Approval of Specialized Medicines in the General Health System
June 25, 2025
The Health Insurance Organization has announced new criteria for the approval of specialized treatments in the General Health System. The new process places greater emphasis on the doctor's opinion and enables faster completion of requests. A doctor has the right to secure treatment for their patient without needing proof of additional clinical benefit, provided there is appropriate documentation. These changes aim to improve patient access to necessary treatments.
