Serbia is implementing various measures to strengthen its healthcare system, including efforts to reintegrate medical professionals from the diaspora and expanding local health services. In late September 2026, fifteen healthcare workers, including specialist doctors and nurses, returned to Serbia from countries such as Germany, Austria, Italy, and Slovenia. Minister of Health Zlatibor Lončar noted that the Ministry is supporting these returnees through the Office for Cooperation with the Diaspora, citing state investments in facility modernization and improved working conditions as drivers for this trend. Simultaneously, regional health services have reported high levels of activity. In Zaječar, urgent care departments managed a high volume of examinations and emergency interventions, particularly for gastrointestinal and respiratory issues. In the Niš region, a large-scale preventive medical campaign conducted by the University Clinical Center Niš and the Institute Niška Banja provided over 2,000 screenings to rural residents, identifying several high-risk cases requiring follow-up care. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-26: Health services report high activity in Zaječar and Niš regions Medical services in Serbia report high activity, including 113 weekend examinations in Zaječar and a successful preventive health campaign in the Niš region that has screened over 2,000 citizens. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/health-services-report-high-activity-in-zajear-and-ni-regions ### 2026-09-20: Serbia welcomes 15 healthcare workers returning from abroad Fifteen medical professionals from the diaspora are returning to Serbia to work in hospitals and health centers across various cities, including Belgrade and Niš. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/serbia-welcomes-15-healthcare-workers-returning-from-abroad --- Cite as: Serbia healthcare system developments.
