Reducing private health expenditure in Greece
Greece records the highest level of private health expenditure in the European Union, driven largely by out-of-pocket payments that undermine financial protection and exacerbate inequities. Despite universal coverage, benefit gaps, cost-sharing arrangements, and limits in publicly financed service availability shift a substantial financial burden onto households. Within a dual insurance system, voluntary private health insurance frequently overla…
Communication skills as a bridge between medical and public health education
Effective communication skills are a critical yet often neglected bridge between individual-focused medical education and population-oriented public health goals. Using the Greek medical system as a case study, this paper highlights a significant gap in formal training, finding that only three of the seven medical schools offer dedicated communication modules, with just two being core courses and representing less than 1% of the total ECTS credit…

We applied a 13-item questionnaire to a random sample of 212 doctors at National Health Service health centers and their satellite clinics. The results…
The Cost of Therapy Services Provided by a Day Psychotherapy Unit

The findings of several studies agree that community-based care services and psychotherapy reduce the cost of mental health consumers. However, much of the ‘psychiatric reform’ process throughout Europe is not based on knowledge of cost and effectiveness of various interventions. On the contrary, it seems that several myths…
