Warning to doctors; Indiscriminate registration of CT and MRI is bankrupting the health care system.
Charagi, member of the Health Committee:
The price of medical equipment in Israel has increased several times and this issue has raised concerns in the health sector.
Until we make prevention a priority in health and treatment programs, the process of increasing the need and costs of treatment will continue.
Today, requests for CT, MRI and advanced radiology have become normal, and sometimes the doctor prescribes one of these services as soon as the patient arrives, while this process is incorrect.
