[PIO] Announcement by the Ministry of Health regarding complaints about issues concerning the arrangement of appointments with medical specialists

With regard to reports according to which, medical specialists, contracted with the GESY, demand payment of a fee of €25 from patients who request an appointment with them, the Minister of Health has requested in a letter to the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Health Insurance Organisation (HIO) Mr. Stavros Michael, to investigate the matter.

Since this practice is clearly illegal, if the complaints are valid, all appropriate measures should be taken.
