Israel's Supreme Court Rules National Insurance Institute Cannot Appoint Medical Board Doctors

Israel's High Court of Justice ruled that the National Insurance Institute (Bituah Leumi) cannot appoint doctors to medical commissions determining disability. The court gave the institute one year to stop this practice, which was challenged by patient and professional groups. The ruling aims to ensure the independence of medical boards and prevent conflicts of interest, as Bituah Leumi is the body that pays disability benefits.
