Bulgaria Extends Insulin Export Ban for Another Month to Secure Domestic Supply
Bulgaria’s Acting Minister of Health, Galya Kondeva, has issued a new order extending the ban on the export of insulin and other medications used to lower blood sugar
Bulgaria's Health Ministry announced Thursday they will be looking for solutions in the issue of the insulin price increase for diabetic patients.
The Health Ministry stated they will submit next week a proposal to the Council of Ministers for changes in the way medication prices are established.
NZOK further warned that a similar problem could arise for another 240 medications.
The patient organizations threaten mass protests over the issue, but said Thursday they would wait until next week to see what the Health Ministry would do.
The planned measures remain unclear since the Health Ministry declined to offer details. The most likely outcome is that the NZOK legal payment limits would be increased, but one thing is sure – the diabetics would have to pay the BGN 5 all through December.
