The Ministry Of Health Exempts All Health Services Fees For Children With Cancer

In a groundbreaking move, the Minister of Health, Dr. Ahmed Al-Awadhi, has announced a significant policy change aimed at supporting children diagnosed with cancer. The exemption extends to all fees and charges associated with health services provided by the Ministry of Health across hospitals and specialized medical centers.

This inclusive initiative encompasses both Kuwaiti and non-Kuwaiti children. Non-Kuwaiti children must possess a valid residency and have received their cancer diagnosis before turning 16. The fee exemption will persist until the child reaches 18 years of age, ensuring continued support throughout their critical years of treatment and recovery.

The comprehensive exemption covers a wide range of health services provided by the Ministry, including fees associated with private rooms in hospitals and specialized medical centers. This measure is a significant step towards alleviating the financial burden on families facing the challenges of pediatric cancer.
