In a society of values everything works best when we walk together and respect the needs of our fellow human beings. By using a health service that we do not really need because it is offered by the System, we are depriving another fellow human being who needs it immediately. Each of us must use the services provided responsibly and wisely. No one should have to wait for health care.
The Health Insurance Organisation, through the information material it has prepared, aims to highlight the importance of solidarity and respect among the beneficiaries of the General Health Insurance Scheme. These elements are essential not only for the smooth functioning of a society but also of the General Health System itself, a social achievement founded on these values.
By properly using the health services provided, we ensure their quality and efficiency, while at the same time ensuring that the General Health System remains sustainable and functional.
An important assistant in this effort is the Personal Physician (PH). A successful institution that has been adopted and implemented in many health systems around the world. Our Personal Physician has the knowledge and experience to take care of our health, providing immediate access to services, treatment and medication coverage.
As the beneficiary's initial point of access to health care services covered by the GHS, it is the Personal Physician who has the task of thoroughly examining all parameters, presenting the beneficiary with options. At the same time, the PI has the responsibility to guide the beneficiary correctly and effectively within the System.
We trust our Personal Physician, because apart from being a scientist, he is our own person within the System, with whom we can build a long-term relationship for the benefit of our health.
By preserving the institution of the Personal Physician, we succeed in maintaining the high level of health services provided and we all enjoy the benefits of a high quality and efficient GHS.
