700 tonnes of medicines wasted — government mulls cuts to free drugs programme for seniors
Poland's Ministry of Health is considering cuts to the free medicines programme for senior citizens, driven by rising costs and waste — 700 tonnes of drugs have been sent for disposal, according to Rzeczpospolita. The head of the Supreme Pharmaceutical Council warns that under the current scheme "medicines may run short". The number of seniors in Poland is growing steadily, pushing up the cost of the programme.
