The Minister of Health, Adonis Georgiadis, the hospital administrations of the country, which were found before him in a conference organized by the Ministry of Health at the National Gallery of the National Gallery on the topic of the Hospital.

First referring to control of pharmaceutical expenditure In the hospitals he said that the payment of the drugs is now centralized by EKAPY, and as he stressed, “this does not in any way mean that the expense control is leaving your own hands.”

He characteristically said that the goal is to have speed and transparency and “Being deducted the jurisdiction of payments from you does not mean that it has been removed and responsibility from you to control the expenditure. “

The Minister of Health also said that the electronic prescription would soon be in the hospitals and warned the commanders that one of their most important evaluation indicators would be to check the expenditure.

“I don’t like to get easy heads, but Anyone who doesn’t do his job will leavethe control will be strict and your responsibility is absolute for supplies and pharmaceutical expense, “the Minister of Health has clarified in a strong style.

Indeed, referring to NHS clinics doctors, he warned that in a short time “we will know about each doctor individually, what he spends and how he spends them with the electronic tools we have in our hands”.

The Minister of Health also talked about what is not priced today, stressing that “your job is to get in order of all this”. As he said, he would ideally want to be zero -off costs, although he stressed that they have been significantly reduced. “Those commanders who had a lot of impunity are not with us today,” he said, adding that it is a practice “that can put us in adventures with the EU”.

The Minister of Health told Governors that in 2024 it was the first time for years, when the Ministry of Health did not request an extraordinary grant from the Ministry of Finance for hospital budgets.

“Compliance with budgets shows that we respect the money of the insured and I hope that in 2025 we will be able to request no extraordinary grant,” Adonis Georgiades said.

But, on the other hand, he made it clear that the budget to adhere to the budget is something that will not be done at the expense of every hospital. “The surgery and the patient is preceded, we have a sacred mission, we are not an accounting officewe are a Ministry of Health, “he said.

Referring to the recovery fund, he said that the projects are proceeding satisfactorily with some exceptions he avoided, but he explained to the Governors that if a project is stuck in a hospital, there is a risk that all the projects will be lost from the Recovery Fund.

He described the fund’s resources as “with them we will make hospitals that will serve the citizen for the next 30 years.” As he typically said, it would be a shame not to use this money to upgrade the hospitals and added that “we owe modern hospitals to patients, call early if you see for some reason that any of the projects is stuck.” June 30, 2026 is a deadline that will not be extended by the recovery fund warned the commanders by saying “no failure will be forgiven”.

The minister, referring to the DRGs who essentially show real time to the administrators of the hospital and how it works, said that “these were not done to close hospitals but it is a necessary tool to monitor and monitor health services to patients”.

Also talked about the new Assessment tool that patients have in their hands. “It is extremely important to you as governors as it enables you to recognize through these evaluations, the real weaknesses of your hospital.”

“Participation in the evaluation today is about 20% and I want your help in it to increase,” Adonis Georgiadis also said, adding that this assessment has already helped as “in all recent polls in the last month the health problem in our country has fallen lower than the first places.”

The Minister of Health thanked the commanders who went into the process of tender for their positions, a difficult process as he said, and thanked them for the cooperation. “This job does not have eight hours. Like me, I want to have your phones openly open, ”the health minister told them, while pointing out to them that if they make mistakes it would not cover any of them.

Adonis Georgiadis also said that there would be a significant effort to upgrade patients’ offices to hospitals, as today, as he admitted, there is weakness.

“We want the system to become a patient -centered, the patient should and is worth the focus. The NHS neither collapses nor dissolves, it has its problems but it has their good times and this year was enough. “

Addressing the commanders, he said that “because the media tend to promote failure they must also promote success themselves. Because the projection of the failure only shakes the confidence of the citizens in the system. “

Referring to surgerieshe said that waiting over four months have been reduced and the afternoon surgeries have contributed to it, which encourages commanders to support as the goal should have been achieved by June 30, 2026.

Referring to the institutional changes, he referred to the opportunity given to the NHS doctors to have private work at the same time, with their work in public hospitals and to individuals who can operate in the NHS under strict conditions. Finally, he called on hospital commanders, in particular the Region, to approach private doctors in order to work in the context of the possibility given to them by the law to work in the NHS.
