Speaking at the Future Health Initiative in Abu Dhabi, Greece’s Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis unveiled his vision for a digitally transformed National Health System, highlighting the Health-IQ platform, cooperation with the World Health Organization, and a major shift from treating diseases to preventing them.
With a 98% reduction in waiting lists exceeding four months, more than 26,800 free evening surgeries and a record 522,000 operations performed in 2025, Greece's Ministry of Health says it has delivered one of the Recovery and Resilience Facility's most successful healthcare reforms.
From 1,139 new physician positions and home delivery of high-cost medicines to a new oncology center in Patras, the modernization of the Karamanandaneio Children’s Hospital and €16 billion in pharmaceutical investments, Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis argues that Greece’s public healthcare system is undergoing its most ambitious transformation in decades.
Tsipras said that the elections on June 25 are a new ballot, while noting that the historic opportunity of simple proportional representation was lost in the May 21 polls.
We have an obligation to further strengthen the national health system, to make it more resilient but also to upgrade the quality of care," Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said.
