Egypt has officially launched the second phase of its ambitious Universal Health Insurance System in the Minya Governorate.
埃及已正式於明亞省啟動其雄心勃勃的「全民健康保險制度」第二階段。
Minya acts as a pivotal pilot region for this second phase, which aims to serve approximately seven million residents.
明亞省作為此第二階段的核心試點地區，目標服務約七百萬居民。
To prepare for this rollout, the Egyptian government has invested over EGP 10 billion into upgrading local healthcare infrastructure.
為準備此次推行，埃及政府已投入超過100億埃及鎊，用於升級當地醫療基礎設施。
This includes renovating numerous hospitals to add over 1,500 beds and equipping 60 primary healthcare facilities.
這包括翻修多家醫院以增加超過1,500張病床，並配備60所基層醫療機構。
A standout feature of this phase is the focus on digital transformation.
此階段的一個顯著特點是聚焦於數位轉型。
By integrating electronic information systems, the government plans to streamline services and reduce administrative wait times for patients.
透過整合電子資訊系統，政府計劃精簡服務流程，減少病患的行政等待時間。
Following a successful one-year trial in Minya beginning in June 2026, the system will eventually expand to cover four additional governorates.
在明亞省於2026年6月開始為期一年的試行後，該制度最終將擴展至其他四個省份。
With over 12 million citizens targeted in this phase, the expansion represents a significant step forward in Egypt's mission to modernize its medical sector and ensure that healthcare remains accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial status.
隨著此階段目標涵蓋超過一千兩百萬公民，此次擴展象徵著埃及在醫療領域現代化，以及確保人人不分經濟狀況皆能享有醫療服務的任務上，邁出了重要的一步。
