Egypt expands investment opportunities in healthcare sector to boost public-private partnerships
Egypt’s Prime Minister Dr. Mostafa Madbouly has reaffirmed the government’s strong commitment to advancing the country’s healthcare sector by opening up a wide range of investment opportunities for the private sector. During a recent meeting with key government ministers and officials, the Prime Minister emphasized the importance of leveraging private sector expertise to strengthen healthcare services and achieve sustainable development goals.
The government, working closely with the General Authority for Investment and Free Zones, has developed a comprehensive package of investment incentives tailored for the healthcare sector. These incentives cover the establishment and operation of new hospitals in several governorates across Egypt, aiming to encourage responsible and sustainable investment practices that will expand coverage and improve quality of care.
A new scoring system for evaluating healthcare investment projects ensures that government support is prioritized for projects with the greatest impact on health outcomes, community well-being, and geographical equity.
Egypt’s Ministry of Finance highlighted the country’s ongoing efforts to build international partnerships to help achieve universal health coverage, while also supporting the long-term financial sustainability of its healthcare system.
These measures are part of Egypt’s broader vision to create a more robust, accessible, and high-quality healthcare system for all citizens, welcoming international and private collaboration as a cornerstone of this progress.
