Moh Tightens Screws On Overseas Treatment Needs

The Ministry of Health formed a team that will look into financial allocations for overseas treatment and address problems after the Cabinet rejected the request to increase the budget of the ministry, in addition to the request to reimburse expenses for the treatment of students and executive expenses taken from the overseas treatment allotment.
