After a 10-year hiatus: Al-Khadra Hospital’s Orthopaedic Department resumes hip joint operations on children

Today, Al-Khadra Hospital reported that after a 10-year hiatus, its orthopaedic department successfully performed an operation on a three-year-old child suffering from a dislocated hip joint.

It said this is considered one of the delicate operations that is usually only performed in the private sector in Libya.

‘’Localisation of Healthcare’’ policy
The resumption of operations by the state sector that have long been halted is part of the Tripoli based Libyan government’s ‘‘Localisation of Healthcare’’ policy. This is an attempt to resume the local provision of healthcare by the state that have long been halted, instead of sending patients abroad at the state’s expense, or forcing Libyans to pay for the care privately.
