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.

IMF Raises Israel Growth Forecast, Warns on Global Debt

The International Monetary Fund has raised its 2026 growth forecast for Israel to 4.5% and expects inflation to decrease to 1.8%. This positive outlook for Israel contrasts with a global economic slowdown and warnings from the IMF about rising public debt and interest rates impacting major economies. The IMF also noted that Israel's projected growth for 2026 is slightly lower than the Bank of Israel's forecast, suggesting a shift in growth timing. Globally, the IMF cautioned about fiscal pressures on governments and downward risks to the economic outlook, including potential impacts from Middle East conflict.
