Greek pharmacists express anger after the national health agency EOPYY announced it will no longer reimburse the four-strain flu vaccine, leaving patients to pay out of pocket while pharmacies are left with prepaid, now non-refundable stock

“All hospitals will be on the MyHealth App from October 1,” announced Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis.

Greece is the first country in the EU to pilot such a service, which will benefit around 139,000 citizens.

During several raids of pharmacies, homes, doctors’ office and warehouses, in fact, more than 17,000 drug packages were recovered

Home delivery includes two main categories, delivery of a limited number of high-cost medications to specific patient categories or to remote areas, and delivery of oral antiviral medications.
