Reforms will continue, Health Minister tells Pharma & Health conference

“Three years ago, now one could have imagined that they could be carried out,” Makis Voridis underlined

The changes and reforms in Greece’s health sector will continue, with 49 ministerial decisions now pending, Health Minister Makis Voridis said on Wednesday, addressing the 5th Pharma & Health conference.

“Three years ago, now one could have imagined that they could be carried out,” he added.
The president of the Hellenic Association of Pharmaceutical Companies (SFEE) Konstantinos Frouzis, however, underlined that the budget for pharmaceutical spending in 2014 should be increased to 2.2 billion euros from the current 2.0 billion euros, adding 100 million euros for vaccines and another 100 million euros to cover the uninsured.
