AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 minutes agoReproductive Health Policy: Liechtenstein’s parliament narrowly backed a bill to legalize abortion up to 12 weeks, but Hereditary Prince Alois has signaled he will veto it—meaning the change is unlikely to take effect. The proposal would also lift the ban on sharing abortion information and allow health insurance coverage, while current law permits abortion only in limited cases like rape or when the woman’s life is at risk. Regional Health Governance: Health ministers from the “health quintet” (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg) met in Esch-sur-Alzette to compare approaches on modernizing pension systems, workplace prevention, and tackling neurodegenerative diseases, with a focus on making pensions more flexible and keeping people employed longer. Medical Innovation & Markets: Implantica announced it will hold a Capital Markets Day in Stockholm on Sept. 9 (webcast available), focusing on its FDA-approved RefluxStop® and plans for the U.S. market launch. Workplace & Prevention Focus: The same ministerial talks highlighted workplace prevention as a practical lever to support longer working lives and reduce strain on pension systems.
