A Government meeting was held under the chairmanship of Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili. The Members of the Cabinet of Ministers discussed 15 agenda topics.

At the meeting, a project was discussed, according to which oncology surgery, both planned and emergency operations, will be financed for all oncology patients (with the exception of persons insured with budget funds) throughout the country. Among these are insured veterans and patients whose annual revenues exceed 40,000 GEL.

Since the relevant decision was made in August 2023, hormonotherapy, chemotherapy, laser therapy, and medications have been financed for all oncology patients throughout the country. Today, according to the amendments approved by the Government of Georgia, financing for chemo/hormone/laser therapies and medications will be equally accessible for citizens.

With said decision, treatment of oncological diseases within the scope of the universal healthcare program will be equally accessible for all beneficiaries regardless of their revenues.
