“There is no concrete evidence showing major difficulty in patients’ access to medicines. Let’s not talk about impressions but hard data. Once we’ve assessed the reality, we have administrative not pricing propositions to improve patient access to medicines,” Robert Popescu, head of the association and CEO of A&D Pharma, said Thursday at the conference Mediafax Talks about Health Reform.
He added some medicines producers have resorted to lowering their supply to the Romanian market
“There are situations where producers no longer supply certain medicines because of their low price,” said Popescu.
The fifth annual edition of the Mediafax Talks about Health Reform conference in Bucharest is organized by MEDIAFAX news agency and the Ministry of Health.
