Postponement of Discussion on Occupational Therapy in Health System
September 11, 2026
The struggle for thousands of children needing occupational therapy continues as a meeting regarding the inclusion of occupational therapists in the health system was postponed. Organized patients express their concerns and demand prioritization of children's needs. The delay in cooperation between professionals and the Health Insurance Organization has lasted nearly seven years. Patients are forced to either pay out of pocket or rely on public services. This situation raises serious concerns for the well-being of children.
