The current paper aims to analyze the spatial analysis of hospitals in the peripheries of Greece. The creation of new indexes has significant meaning because, this way, we study new phenomena and new scientific circumstances. The current medical situation needs to be “read” holistically and multiscience. For instance, the mathematical and cartography approach helps in this direction. The purpose is to create indexes, statistics, and maps of the density of hospitals. The goals are to classify the solid points and disadvantages of the number of hospitals, the spatial equality between the inhabitants, and the area of each district. The software QGIS helps construct digital products (maps, statistics). Also, the visualization of the information is significant in understanding. The Greek healthcare system comprises elements from both the public and private sectors. Although a national health service-type system was established in 1983 in the public sector, it coexists with a social health insurance model. The results are export new indexes, maps, and helpful reviews of the spatial allocation of public hospitals. The current work focuses only on public hospitals. Today, many people live in cities with over 3.000.000 inhabitants. Urbanization increases the density of the inhabitants, the quick daily life, the number of cars, and the increase of information. As a result, the stress and pressure levels increase in the countries capitals and the second – third most prominent cities. In modern statements, district centers, private health hospitals, and small centers offer medical services. The hospitals are the giant medicine pole in each statement. The hospital focuses actions on economic and healthy care for all ages.
