Hospital patient surveys expanded to cancer, pediatric care

The Greek Health Ministry announced plans to expand its patient experience evaluation system to include cancer and pediatric care settings. Starting Thursday, cancer patients who have undergone surgery and parents/guardians of children receiving treatment will receive text messages directing them to anonymous questionnaires about their hospital experiences. The system was initially launched in July for general hospitals, with over 75,000 responses and 75% positive ratings. Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis noted that the surveys have already identified areas for improvement, such as patient information and catering services. The expansion will gradually include chemotherapy and immunotherapy patients by late 2026, with radiotherapy patients covered by mid-2027. Officials emphasized the goal of creating a more patient-centered healthcare system based on direct patient feedback.
