Military prosthetics with new system in 2027
The Minister of Defense announced changes to the prosthetic allocation system for disabled military personnel, effective January 1, 2027. Payments will be made directly by the Armed Forces Hospital, expediting the process. This announcement came during a parliamentary session where delays in prosthetic provision were discussed. The minister highlighted an increase in defense spending, projecting 2.15% of GDP for 2027, and noted a rise in military personnel numbers.
