MEDICA 2025 is set to welcome a prominent guest at its opening: Federal Minister of Health Nina Warken has confirmed her participation in the launch event of the 48th German Hospital Conference. Under the motto "A Fresh Start for Hospital Policy – Courage for Change", this year’s Hospital Conference will take place in Hall 10. At a time when healthcare reforms, staffing issues, and the quality of medical care are dominating the national debate, Minister Warken’s appearance on 17 November promises a high-profile and potentially groundbreaking dialogue with leading decision-makers from German hospitals.
