Some politicians say what they plan to do and then actually go and do it. And that is why those politicians are often the most admired and well-liked politicians in the system.

Just over a month ago Minister of Health Yaakov Litzman announced that he is working to get Coffix into hospitals, in order to bring down the ridiculous prices charged by food establishments already located on hospital premises.

While it seems he has not yet got Coffix into the hospital malls, he has just inaugurated the first set of cheap food machines in a hospital, starting with Ichilov Hospital.



From the looks of it, you can get soft drinks, water, juice, hot drinks and a variety of snacks for 5nis each,

Great start Minister Litzman! Hopefully this program will expand to more hospitals and to a greater variety of food options. This will be a great boon for people in hospitals, sick and visitor alike, and especially to those who have to spend a lot of time in the hospital.
