Hadassah Medical Center expansion in Cyprus

Overview

The Jerusalem-based Hadassah Medical Center inaugurated a new facility in Limassol, Cyprus, providing specialized services such as cardiology, neurology, and diagnostic imaging. The center utilizes local staff alongside professional support from specialists in Jerusalem. Following this opening, the organization announced plans to develop a future hospital near Nicosia to support inpatient treatment, medical research, and professional training.

However, the Cyprus Ministry of Health has launched an investigation into the Limassol facility regarding its operational scope. While the center was licensed specifically to operate as an imaging center, authorities are examining reports that it is advertising additional services, including medical consultations, physiotherapy, and telemedicine-based second opinions from specialists in Jerusalem. The Ministry is reviewing the legal framework to determine if the center is operating outside its authorized capacity.
