Health Minister Mikheil Sarjveladze participates in economic forum on new opportunities in Georgia’s healthcare policy

Georgian Health Minister Mikheil Sarjveladze took part in a meeting held as part of the Economic Forum under the theme New Opportunities in Georgia’s Healthcare Policy.

The forum brought together representatives from state agencies, the private sector, Parliament’s Economic Policy Committee, and healthcare industry leaders to discuss development prospects for the health system and avenues for deeper cooperation. Participants also examined ways to improve healthcare policy, ensure the accessibility and quality of medical services, boost systemic efficiency, and unlock new opportunities for economic growth within the sector.

Particular attention was paid to partnership with the private insurance industry. The Minister called for closer cooperation between the state and private insurers, stressing that every reform must ultimately deliver better, more accessible care for patients.

Attendees agreed that well-structured collaboration between the public and private sectors is a vital prerequisite for strengthening the healthcare system and fostering a patient-centred environment, according to the Ministry of Internally Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories, Labour, Health and Social Affairs.
