1566: The four -digit number that changes health

OR New TV campaign of the Ministry of Health humor and inventively present the multi -channel “transformation” of health

Do you have a headache? The uncle will tell you “is the pressure”, the mom “Drink a Chamomile”, your girlfriend will encourage you to do blood tests, while someone else will swear to have a “eye”.

In Greece, for every symptom, there are a thousand opinions, wisdoms and tips. And among them, fortunately, as a machine god, in 1566, the new, single communication and service of citizens for health services by the Ministry of Health. A line that comes to an end to pluralism and provide you with the only information you need. The right one.

An ad that speaks our language

In the new television spot of the Ministry of Health, a simple incident in a cinema is causing a storm of diagnoses. Everyone has something to say, from grandmother’s recipes to a “valid” view they read online. The result? A delightful mosaic of views that is very reminiscent of our daily lives. The solution is given by 1566. The new citizen’s connection number to the NHS immediately, easily and reliably.

What can you do with 1566

The line is part of the new mechanism of coordination, navigation and multi -channel service of the Ministry of Health, it operates free, 24/7, and at its first stage it offers:

• Information on personal and affiliated doctors
• Information on Health Structures and Online Structures (Pharmacies, Hospitals)
• Ability to make an appointment through HIDA in PHI and Mental Health Structures
• Update for preventive exams & vaccinations
• Instructions for receiving high -cost drugs (PEK)
• Update concerning the method of submitting a complaint

By 1^or October, access becomes even easier, as in 1566 it extends to the NHS hospital appointments.

Polyphony or multi -channel?

In 1566 the polyphonic Babel that was in force until yesterday in the health sector is radically changing. Now the health is becoming multipurpose: by phone at 1566 or digitally at 1566.gov.gr, wherever you are, whatever you are connecting. Because the new four -digit health ministry is not just another line, it is the digital hub that upgrades the NHS access, bringing, for the first time, the service to the citizen.

Whether you are one of those who “know”, either from those who are looking for the internet, or those who prefer grandmother’s advice, you now know. The correct information is four digits away: 1566.

^{Implementation of 1566 is funded by “Greece 2.0” recovery and resilience fund, with resources of the European Union – NextGenerationeu.}
