Greek public health system 'catastrophic', says German official

Greece’s public health system is "catastrophic", "scandalous and frightening" and is so bad that it cannot be given a grade, a German health ministry representative said on Thursday, warning that the timeframe imposed by the troika for reform was 'impossible to carry out'.

Wolfgang Zoeller, who oversees his ministry’s cooperation with its Greek counterpart, made the comments in an interview with Deutsche Welle.

In an earlier briefing of the Bundestag committee on health concerning his visit to Greece – including his talks with Health Minister Makis Voridis, the management of the primary healthcare network PEDY, non-governmental organisations and hospital doctors – Zoeller had called the situation "scandalous and frightening".
