Greece has improved emergency service waiting times in public hospitals by introducing an electronic patient tracking system using QR code bracelets. This system prioritizes patients based on the severity of their conditions and provides real-time updates on waiting times. The program has been implemented in 10 hospitals, significantly reducing wait times, with plans to expand to more facilities. Despite improvements, about 30% of patients still seek emergency care unnecessarily. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
