Egypt promotes medical tourism within Africa
A cross-agency recruitment campaign seeks to encourage citizens of other countries to visit Egypt for treatment
Egypt hopes to use its improving health sector to promote medical tourism, encouraging citizens of other African nations to visit Egypt for treatment.
This topic was discussed at a Sept 2. meeting between Dr. Ahmed El-Sobky, President of the General Authority for Health Care, and Ambassador Mohamed Khalil, the Secretary-General of the Egyptian Agency for Partnership for Development (EAPD). Established in 2014, the EAPD is the first South-South cooperation institution in Egypt to share technical expertise with African countries.
