The Physician at the Heart of the Medical System
At the heart of Maccabi Healthcare Services is a system of independent salaried physicians who provide services to Maccabi members. The staff is comprised of primary care physicians, consultants in various medical fields and specialists in a broad range of medical specialties.

Pharmacies
A network of over 600 pharmacies throughout the country offer Maccabi members prescription drugs. Maccabi's network of pharmacies is the only one of its kind in Israel and one of the only pharmacy chains in the world which employ satellite technology. Through its link up with the Amos satellite, the pharmacies immediately update each member's pharmacological file, thereby preventing the provision of contraindicated drugs or erroneous dosages. Maccabi's health division determines the policy of classifying drugs for procurement and supply to the pharmacies.
