“Greece has been linked to the system that traces all drugs across the EU, even those that are being traded online,” Add said. Georgiadis
Greece has been in the days to be connected to HMVO, the system with which all the drugs across the EU are traced, even those that are moving online, as announced today by Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis,
As Mr. Georgiadis pointed out, “it cannot be moved – a prescription drug is traded without monitoring it. Is Multiple more powerful than the authenticity movie“
However, non -compulsory prescription drugs do not fit into this system and will continue to have the film of authenticity.
“If we had not been logged in, we would have an import problem and we would get out,” Mr Georgiadis noted.
For his part, the president of the Panhellenic Pharmaceutical Association, Apostolos Valta, said honestly: “I didn’t think they would finish it. The problem of false drugs existed but was not great in our country because we had a system that worked quite well. But we had to get into the EU process. We had huge problems. Pharmacists are the losers as we burdened 4m euros without a trace of reciprocity. At some point import companies should understand that the patient is above all. “
The Minister of Health also referred to the electronic prescription, stressing that “the old prescription system did not support this interconnection. I apologize to the doctors who are suffering but now they are all normalized. “
Also, as he pointed out, at a press conference on the new way of disposing of drugs with barcode and not the coupons of genuineness they had to date, a mission to the House of PEK (high -cost drugs) will begin in April.
A bidder has already been chosen for the project and, as the Minister of Health estimated, there will be no appeals and delays. In addition, in 2023 it has been legislated that private postal companies will be able to have high -cost medicines and deliver them home to patients.
The Minister of Health reiterated what he had said and interview with RES-EIA that high-cost medicines would be available from private pharmacies. “I am absolutely agreement, even though we know it will cost a little more,” Mr Georgiadis said.
