BEIRUT: Health Minister Wael Abu Faour has ended the government's contract with one of Lebanon's most prestigious hospitals over violating the agreement.
A ministry statement released Friday said that it has ended its contract with Hotel Dieu Hospital in Beirut's Ashrafieh district.
It said Hotel Dieu violated the contract with the ministry by refusing to admit a patient with a disability.
The statement did not elaborate.
The closure comes amid an ongoing and wide-ranging health ministry campaign launched in November to stamp out corruption in food establishments and health care centers.
Last month Abu Faour terminated the ministry's contract with Al-Hayat Hospital in Beirut's southern suburbs over the hospital's "bad dealings with patients."
