Patients’ Rights in Public Administration: Less Bureaucracy and More Transparency

With Law 5293/2026 (Government Gazette A’57), a new framework is introduced for the operation of Public Administration in Greece, directly linked to patients’ rights in public administration, aiming to create a more citizen-friendly, efficient and transparent system.

These changes affect everyday interactions with public services, improving the way citizens are served, informed and supported.

The main provisions of the law can be grouped into three key pillars:

1. Simplification of procedures and reduction of bureaucracy

A central element of the reform is the simplification of administrative processes.

Article 3 – Replacement of supporting documents

According to Article 3, citizens may, in several cases, replace official supporting documents with a solemn declaration, when these documents cannot be directly retrieved by public services.

In practice, this means:

  • fewer documents need to be submitted
  • public authorities are responsible for retrieving the required information
  • procedures can start immediately without delays

At the same time, verification mechanisms are in place, including checks and sanctions in cases of false declarations.

Article 5 – Faster processing of requests

Article 5 strengthens the obligation of public services to process requests within specific deadlines, reducing delays in administrative procedures.

2. Transparency and digital access to information

The second pillar focuses on improving transparency and access to information.

Article 5 – Case tracking

Citizens are given the ability to digitally monitor the progress of their requests.

They can access information such as:

  • the current stage of the process
  • the estimated completion time
  • the responsible department
  • contact details for further communication

Article 6 – Mandatory publication of circulars

All administrative circulars:

  • must be published online
  • are valid only after publication

This ensures that citizens have access to up-to-date and valid information.

Article 7 – Online publication of public service hours

Public authorities are required to publish and regularly update:

  • their operating hours
  • public service hours

This helps reduce unnecessary visits and waiting times.

3. A new way of operating public administration

The law also introduces a new approach to administrative procedures, aiming to increase efficiency.

Article 4 – Certified professionals

Public administration may collaborate with certified professionals who:

  • are registered in official registries
  • meet specific qualification and certification criteria
  • can prepare reports, certificates or draft decisions used in administrative processes

These professionals are subject to:

  • random checks
  • penalties and fines in case of errors
  • removal from the registry if necessary

At the same time, accountability mechanisms (particularly under Article 3) ensure the reliability of the system.

What this means for patients

While these measures apply to all citizens, they are particularly important in relation to patients’ rights in public administration.

Reducing bureaucracy, enabling digital access to information and speeding up procedures can significantly ease the burden for patients, especially in processes related to:

  • healthcare services
  • benefits and allowances
  • administrative approvals

Towards a more accessible public administration

Law 5293/2026 represents an important step towards a more efficient, transparent and accessible public administration.

For patients and their families, every improvement that reduces complexity and uncertainty is not just an administrative change, but a meaningful support in their daily lives.

Person-centred cancer care: a new global report for more sustainable health systems

Cancer continues to place a growing burden on individuals, health systems, and society, making it essential to strengthen person-centred cancer care and rethink how care is delivered. New cancer diagnoses are expected to rise by nearly 77% by 2050, further straining already pressured healthcare systems.

Many countries report limited access to treatments, workforce shortages, and long waiting times as key challenges. In this context, policymakers must rethink how cancer care is delivered, ensuring that limited resources are used effectively while maintaining access to high-quality services.

The report titled “Implementing Person-Centred Cancer Care to Improve Outcomes, Experiences and Efficiency”, published by All.Can International, is based on evidence and studies from 2018–2025. It brings together insights from experts across 11 countries and aims to support policymakers and health systems in redesigning cancer care towards a more person-centred and efficient model.

The report highlights that person-centred cancer care is a practical, high-impact approach that improves patient experience while strengthening the resilience of health systems. It places individuals at the centre of care, taking into account their needs, values, and goals, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all clinical pathway.

The framework is structured around seven key areas of intervention, with a common goal: better care for patients and more sustainable health systems.

1. Early diagnosis and timely initiation of treatment

Late diagnosis remains a major global challenge. Limited health literacy, low participation in screening programmes, and weaknesses in primary care often lead to delays in treatment.

The report recommends more tailored public information, taking into account health literacy levels and cultural context. It also emphasises the co-design of screening programmes with communities to improve participation and enable earlier diagnosis.

2. Coordinated and multidisciplinary care

Lack of coordination between services leads to delays and unequal care provision. Strengthening multidisciplinary teams and introducing patient navigation can help individuals move more smoothly through the healthcare system and receive more consistent care.

3. Digital tools and system integration

Fragmented data management and limited interoperability between health systems remain major barriers. Developing integrated data infrastructures, national cancer registries, and using technologies such as artificial intelligence can improve efficiency and coordination.

4. Telemedicine and remote care

At the same time, digital health services can reduce geographical barriers and bring care closer to patients. However, investment in infrastructure and training is necessary to ensure equitable access.

The use of wearable health technologies and mobile applications can support continuous monitoring and care beyond hospital settings.

5. Communication and shared decision-making

Effective communication between healthcare professionals and patients remains a critical challenge. Shared decision-making models, the use of patient experience data, and culturally appropriate communication can strengthen trust and improve care quality.

At the same time, involving caregivers in communication processes is essential, as their needs are often overlooked.

6. Supportive care and survivorship

Access to psychosocial and supportive care remains limited in many settings, negatively affecting quality of life. Integrating support services throughout the care pathway is essential, especially as more people live with and beyond cancer.

The report also highlights the importance of advance care planning, which can reduce unnecessary hospitalisations and support patient autonomy.

7. Financial support and access to care

The financial burden of cancer remains a major barrier to accessing care. The report recommends improved reimbursement systems, financial navigation services, and support for indirect costs to reduce financial toxicity for patients and their families.

Person-centred cancer care in Greece

Although the report has a global scope, its findings are highly relevant for countries like Greece. Challenges such as delays in diagnosis, inequalities in access, workforce pressure, and limited system integration reflect real issues within the Greek healthcare system.

In this context, the transition towards more coordinated, digitally supported, and person-centred cancer care becomes particularly important.

Call to action

Therefore, policymakers must urgently embed person-centred care into national cancer strategies. Collaboration with people with lived experience of cancer is essential to designing more equitable, efficient, and sustainable health systems.

Adopting this approach can contribute to earlier diagnosis, improved quality of care, better use of resources, and ultimately more resilient health systems in the face of rising cancer burden.

April: Awareness Month for Head & Neck Cancer and Testicular Cancer

April has been internationally recognized as an awareness month for two important types of cancer: head and neck cancer and testicular cancer. Education and prevention are critical, as early diagnosis can save lives and significantly improve patients’ quality of life. Although these cancers are often overlooked in public discussions, raising awareness helps reduce delayed diagnoses and strengthens preventive measures. Society is encouraged to participate actively in awareness campaigns, speak openly about risks, and promote prevention across all age groups.

Head and Neck Cancer

Head and neck cancer includes tumors that occur in the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, nasal cavities, and paranasal sinuses. According to the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), approximately 150,000 new cases are diagnosed annually in Europe, with 70% affecting men. In Greece, it is estimated that over 3,500 new cases occur each year, primarily in people aged 50+, while incidence among younger patients is increasing due to HPV infection.

Risk factors include smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, sun exposure for certain skin cancers of the face, and HPV. Symptoms that should not be ignored include persistent sore throat, voice changes, non-healing sores, neck lumps, and difficulty swallowing. Early recognition of these symptoms and regular check-ups with a specialist significantly improve survival chances, exceeding 80% when diagnosed early. Additionally, regular dental exams and HPV vaccination are recommended preventive measures.

Testicular Cancer

Testicular cancer is rare but primarily affects young men aged 20 to 40. Awareness is critical, as early detection is associated with survival rates of up to 95% in early stages. In Greece, approximately 300–400 new cases are reported annually. Risk factors include history of undescended testicles (cryptorchidism), family history of testicular cancer, and certain genetic conditions.

Self-examination is the most effective method for early detection: men are encouraged to regularly check their testicles for lumps, changes in size, or texture. Education about self-examination reduces fear and promotes early consultation with a physician. Early medical intervention and imaging tests contribute to complete treatment, often without requiring radical surgery, allowing patients to return quickly to normal activities.

The prevention and education are our strongest weapons against cancer. Through awareness initiatives, like those organized by Kapa3, people learn to recognize early symptoms, seek timely medical advice, and rely on professionals and organizations offering counseling and support. Knowledge saves lives, and active participation can make a difference, strengthening a culture of prevention and personal responsibility for health.

New National Patient Registry for Hospital-at-Home Care (NOSPI)

Patient care at home in Greece is becoming more organized and secure with the establishment of the National Registry of Patients Receiving Hospital-at-Home Care (NOSPI), as published in Government Gazette 1995/07.04.2026. The NOSPI program is already in pilot implementation at selected hospitals nationwide, with the goal of full development and operation by the end of 2026, including a digital platform and patient registry.

The new registry aims to systematically record patients receiving NOSPI services, ensuring that care is tailored to individual therapeutic needs. Patient groups eligible for inclusion include, among others, those with tracheostomies, on non-invasive mechanical ventilation, receiving long-term oxygen therapy, on parenteral or gastrostomy feeding, as well as those requiring intensive physiotherapy or mobility rehabilitation. Currently, enrollment primarily focuses on children with severe health conditions and chronically ill patients needing pulmonary care, in collaboration with pilot Reference Centers.

While the NOSPI program is already operating in a pilot phase, universal access for all patients in the country has not yet been achieved. Its development is gradual, with full operation—including digital infrastructure and registry-based documentation—planned by the end of 2026. Strengthening Hospital-at-Home care enables better monitoring and improvement of home care services for patients with long-term needs.

Through the registry, authorities can collect accurate and essential health data, enhancing the quality of services and supporting the design of targeted health policies. Implementation respects personal data protection in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), ensuring transparency and public trust.

For families and caregivers, patient enrollment in the NOSPI National Registry means access to more coordinated care, with support delivered directly to their homes. Furthermore, documentation helps evaluate and improve home nursing services, enhancing patient safety and quality of life.

This initiative, combined with the development of the digital platform and registry, aims not only to upgrade home care services but also to reduce hospital congestion and ensure high-quality services for all patients in the future.

World Health Day 2026: Together for Health, Guided by Science

Every year, on April 7th, the World Health Organization (WHO) reminds us through World Health Day that health is a fundamental human right. World Health Day 2026 highlights, through its central message “Together for health. Stand with science”, the importance of scientific knowledge, research, and collaboration as key pillars for a fairer and more effective health system.

In an era where information is more accessible than ever—but not always reliable—science remains the solid foundation on which modern healthcare is built. This is not merely theoretical knowledge but a dynamic system grounded in data, clinical studies, and continuous evaluation. Thanks to science, recent years have seen significant advances in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of serious illnesses such as cancer, improving both survival rates and patients’ quality of life.

However, this progress is not equally accessible to everyone. In Greece, health inequalities remain pronounced and multifactorial. A significant proportion of citizens report not receiving the necessary medical care due to cost, geographical limitations, or long waiting times, while nearly 1 in 10 households faces severe financial burden from healthcare expenses. Residents of remote areas often need to travel to major urban centers to access specialized services.

At the same time, innovative treatments already available in other European countries may take considerable time to reach Greek patients, limiting timely access to the benefits of scientific progress. This unequal access clearly demonstrates that science, however vital, is not enough on its own—it requires the right mechanisms to ensure its benefits reach everyone.

In this context, technology can serve as a bridge. Artificial intelligence (AI), when based on scientifically validated data, can play a key role in providing accurate and reliable information, reducing misinformation, and improving access to support. Kapa3’s digital assistant, Myrto, is one such example, bringing scientific knowledge closer to patients and supporting their daily needs, always in complement to healthcare professionals.

“Stand with science” therefore means not only trusting science but actively applying it in everyday life. It means seeking reliable information, using modern tools grounded in data, and advocating for equal access to innovations that can improve patients’ lives.

At Kapa3, this commitment is reflected through continuous updates on advances in oncology, new therapeutic approaches, innovative care practices, as well as through collaborations, participation in initiatives, and European programs such as MELODIC. (You can explore related articles here, here, and here.)

World Health Day 2026 offers a valuable opportunity to reflect not only on the achievements of science but also on the challenges that remain. By investing in knowledge, strengthening collaboration, and reducing inequalities, we can shape a health system that is more accessible, fair, and humane for all.

Health should not depend on where one lives, what one knows, or what one can afford. Science exists—the key is to make it reach everyone.
In this context, to “stand with science” ultimately means standing with every person in need of care.

The digital transformation of documents

Greece is advancing in digital governance with Law 4727/2020, making it mandatory for public authorities to accept electronic documents bearing an approved electronic signature or electronic stamp. This means citizens and businesses no longer need to submit paper forms or collect physical signatures for documents to be legally recognized.

What are approved electronic signatures and stamps?
Approved signatures and stamps confirm the authenticity and legal validity of documents. Certificates, applications, or contracts with these digital markers are recognized by all public and judicial authorities, as well as by private entities, without additional procedures.

Easy verification and security
Documents issued through the Unified Digital Government Portal (gov.gr) carry a unique verification code and can be checked online using either the verification code or QR code. This provides added security and transparency while reducing the risk of fraudulent documents.

Practical benefits for citizens and businesses
Digital documents simplify administrative processes and save time, enabling citizens and businesses to focus on essential tasks instead of bureaucratic procedures. At the same time, the reliability and legal validity of documents are preserved across public and private sectors.

The new reality
Mandatory acceptance of electronic documents marks another step toward a modern, user-friendly, and transparent administration, where citizens can trust that their documents are recognized, whether digital or printed. The digitalization of documents also promotes efficiency, security, and accessibility, enhancing daily interactions with public authorities.

The adoption of electronic documents is a major step toward a paperless, fast, and secure workflow. It ensures compliance with national laws while making government services more approachable and easier to navigate for everyone.

Expansion of High-Cost Medicines Available Through EOPYY Private Pharmacies – What Changes for Patients

The Hellenic National Organization for the Provision of Health Services (EOPYY) is expanding the list of new high-cost medicines available through private EOPYY pharmacies, facilitating patient access to high-cost treatments. The recent decision was published in the Government Gazette.

This development represents another step toward simplifying patient access to high-cost therapies, reducing the need for physical visits to EOPYY pharmacies.

The new regulation includes the addition of further medicines, broadening the scope of the measure. Among these are treatments for multiple sclerosis, such as the active substance ocrelizumab, as well as anticancer agents like imatinib and capecitabine, widely used in oncology. This expansion is expected to significantly benefit more patients, who until now had to be served through specific distribution points, often facing longer waiting times. Patients will gain convenience and improved continuity of care, as access to treatments becomes faster and more reliable.

The option to collect medicines from private EOPYY pharmacies is expected to substantially improve patients’ daily lives, reducing hassle and enhancing accessibility, especially for those with chronic or serious conditions. This change is also part of the broader digital transformation of health services, aiming for a more flexible and patient-centered system. Healthcare providers will be able to monitor medicine distribution more efficiently, ensuring timely support and guidance for patients throughout their treatment.

According to the Government Gazette:

The start date of the medicine distribution process, with supply by EOPYY and final delivery at the private pharmacy specified in ministerial decision EΑLE/GΠ/oικ.51724/19-11-2025, as listed in the table below, is set as the date when EOPYY’s upgraded electronic platform (fyk.eopyy.gov.gr) becomes fully operational for the submission of patient requests under the new procedure defined in the above ministerial decision.
