(MENAFN)

The National News Agency said that the World Bank decided to allocate USD120 million for care centers in Lebanon and to finance the medical needs of the Lebanese people, Jamil Jabak, the Lebanese Health Minister, said.

Jabak was quoted saying that "The World Bank will offer 120 million U.S. dollars to equip centers and cover people's needs including medical tests and radiography services".

He added that the project is important as a result of worsening economic conditions of Lebanese citizens and their inability to pay their medical bills.

He said that around 220 primary care centers are supported by the ministry across the country and the expenses of medical tests and hospitalization services are covered.
