In an illustrative video posted on social networks, the Minister of Health and Social Protection, Ogerta Manastirliu, published the procedure for reimbursing drugs for patients diagnosed with Covid-19.
Dr. Bujar Mema, from the Health Center no.9 in Tirana, explained that the procedure for reimbursement of drugs is done through direct contact with the family doctor.
"The prescription is generated online and with the relevant code, the patient's family members receive the drugs in the pharmacy, with a 100% refund from the state," said Manastirliu.
Once a person is positive, Dr. Mema explained that this is done:
1. The patient is in the resident register and is described as a "person with Covid".
2. The stage of the disease and the treatment scheme are determined.
3. Appropriate medication is given (vitamins, temperature sedatives, antibiotics, etc.).
4. The prescription code is set, which will be used later for the 100% reimbursement of medicines.
