Industry Overview

The healthcare sector in Cyprus is experiencing significant changes due to the implementation of the General Health System (GHS), leading to an unprecedented transformation in the wider healthcare landscape. This shift has brought about various challenges, such as addressing provider inefficiencies inherited from legacy operating models implemented in the past, the increased competition for limited GHS budgets, and the need to achieve better outcomes, safety, and patient experiences at lower costs. Additionally, the sector has been facing a slow pace of digital transformation, a crucial component for efficiency improvement, which is now gaining rapid momentum.

On a global scale, the healthcare sector is grappling with the aftermath of the pandemic, a rise in non-communicable diseases, demographic shifts including aging populations, rising costs, and supply-chain difficulties. Furthermore, there are ongoing issues related to workforce supply and well-being, economic and social inequalities, geopolitical tensions, and the impact of global economic downturns.
