Ahmed Kouchouk, Deputy Minister of Finance for Fiscal Policies, emphasized the state’s reliance on the private sector to rejuvenate economic growth. This year marks the beginning of 40 economic entities, and within 5 years, it will encompass all state public entities, aiding in the enhancement of financial and economic performance metrics. He elaborated that among the 156 entities under the Comprehensive Health Insurance system, 47 are private sector entities, serving 4.4 million citizens, with current satisfaction rates surpassing 85%. This progressive system allows beneficiaries to select their service provider from either the private or public sector. These measures afford the private sector an enhanced role in amplifying its contributions to economic and developmental endeavors.
