The National Centre for Health System Reform organized a workshop in Tripoli on Saturday entitled “Developing the Libyan Health System”, the Libyan Health Ministry reported today. It reported that a number of experts presented working papers on the development of the health system in terms of five main axes: health care, medical education, medical supply, digital transformation, financing and management, and health legislation. The NCHSR’s aim was to coordinate national efforts and international backing to reform and modernise the system. Headed initially by Samir Sagar, it operates in collaboration with the health ministry, and springs out of the Libya Health System Strengthening Programme (LHSS), set up between the Libyan authorities and the European Union. A very large percentage of Libyans still use foreign countries for their health needs.
