Issues with Patient Registration in the General Healthcare System

October 21, 2025

Some personal doctors are exploiting legal loopholes to expand their patient lists, resulting in their inability to adequately care for a large number of individuals. Parents have reported that their children were never registered under their personal doctor, despite being monitored by them. This has serious implications for citizens' health, which was highlighted in a parliamentary committee meeting. The OAY's director-general informed that legislative changes are being prepared to address these shortcomings. Parents who have faced issues have been waiting for responses from OAY for quite some time.
