Israel, being a developed western society has advanced modern medical services, sufficient doctors and very well established medical insurance system. Despite all this, the demand for ‘alternative’ health services (AHS) in Israel has been growing steadily, as in other developed countries around the world. In response to public demand, healthcare centres have come forward to provide AHS, and led to positive results, with a substantial reduction in healthcare cost; all parties involved in discussion on this topic agree that there is room to incorporate integrative medicine into modern healthcare.
On this background the four nationwide ‘Health Maintenance Organizations’ (HMOs) of Israel, have taken the lead with an intention to discuss new perspectives, predominant views and to boost up dialogue and exchange of information. ‘The Jerusalem International Conference on Integrative Medicine’ will be held at International Convention Center, Jerusalem (http://www.iccjer.co.il/en/) from May 13 to 15, 2012. The abstract submission deadline is Thursday, February 2, 2012. For more details about schedule, conference topics, conference languages, abstract submission, registration and accommodation details, visa requirements, email IDs of concerned persons, etc. please visit at http://www.mediconvention.com/.
