Lebanon's National Social Security Fund raised the tariffs for doctor consultations in private clinics, setting the specialist fee at 3,200,000 Lebanese pounds and the general practitioner fee at 2,500,000 pounds, the fifth increase since June 2023. Head of the Beirut Doctors' Syndicate Elias Shalala said the tariff does not match reality, noting that the Medical Ethics Law leaves contract freedom and fee-setting to the doctor, meaning patients may bear the difference between the official tariff and what the doctor charges.
