These objectives will be achieved through the creation of management and governance bodies, namely the higher authority for integrated health legislation, regional health agencies and territorial health groups, the minister said in a presentation on the reform of the health system and its rehabilitation during the Government Council, held through video-conference under the chairmanship of Head of Government Saad Dine El Otmani.

In this regard, Ait Taleb stated that among the main foundations of this project is the development of human resources by removing the obstacles imposed by Law 131.13 on the practice of foreign doctors in Morocco and by promulgating new rules based on the principle of equal treatment between Moroccan doctors and their foreign colleagues.

This reform project, he said, also aims to strengthen foreign investment and attract expertise and foreign medical skills, so as to develop the health infrastructure while ensuring high-quality biomedical equipment, and to encourage Moroccan medical skills residing abroad to return to their country and settle permanently.

The Minister announced the upcoming creation of a civil service of health to develop the human capital of the public health sector and adapt its management with the specifics of the health profession.

The creation of an integrated information system for the collection, processing and exploitation of all basic information related to the health system, including the private sector, is another pillar of this project, Ait Taleb said.
