The Romanian Ministry of Health announced that innovative obesity therapies may be compensated starting next year for at-risk patients. This was stated during the national conference "Romania Intelligent: Solutions for the 21st Century Disease - Partnership in the Fight Against Obesity." With around 70% of Romanians being overweight and nearly 40% suffering from obesity, urgent measures are needed. The Minister emphasized the importance of developing a prescription methodology for these therapies and initiating discussions with relevant authorities for compensation. Without treatment, obesity can lead to serious health issues, including diabetes. Experts stress the need for long-term management and monitoring of patients to ensure effective treatment and prevention strategies. Without urgent action, over 11 million Romanians could be overweight or obese by 2030.
