The Ministry of Health has launched the "referral to family physician" application in the MHRS system. Citizens who wish to make an appointment will first be referred to a family physician, who will be able to create an appointment with a specialist doctor if necessary. The application aims to expedite access to specialist doctors and to use the capacity of family medicine efficiently.

The Ministry of Health has initiated a new regulation through the Central Physician Appointment System (MHRS) to facilitate citizens' access to healthcare services and to make resource utilization more efficient. With the system implemented on July 25, 2025, individuals wishing to create an appointment request will first encounter the "referral to family physician" screen.
IF FAMILY PHYSICIANS DEEM NECESSARY...
Citizens will be referred to family physicians based on their preferences and will undergo a preliminary examination. Family physicians will be able to create direct appointments with specialist physicians through MHRS using a special quota allocated to their population when they deem it necessary.
WHY WAS SUCH A THING DONE?
With the new regulation, the aim is to accelerate access to specialist physicians, utilize family medicine capacity more efficiently, and manage health issues that can be resolved at the primary level by family physicians.
