Since the beginning of the war, the Affordable Medicines reimbursement program has included about 80 pharmacy chains, said Natalia Husak, head of the National Health Service of Ukraine (NSZU).
“It has become very valuable for us that pharmacies have expressed a desire to enter the reimbursement program during the war. Since March, we have concluded agreements with another 80 pharmacy chains, which means that 461 new pharmacies and pharmacy points have been added, where patients can get affordable medicine and insulin,” she said in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
Gusak said that currently 1,361 pharmacies are participating in the program, which in total have a network of more than 12.5 thousand holiday places throughout the country.
