Central Bohemia considers home deliveries of medicines

The recently elected governor of the Central Bohemian Region, David Rath, told the daily Právo on Saturday that the region is considering introducing home deliveries of medicines. Mr Rath said that patients could order their drugs by telephone and have them delivered to their homes “just like pizza”. According to Governor Rath, only more expensive medicines would be distributed in this way. The proposal comes after Mr Rath abolished health care fees in the region, a promise he made during his campaign ahead of November’s regional elections.
