Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 72756, member: 636"] Bulgarian pharmacy operators warned that delayed government reimbursements threaten medication access as healthcare officials finalize spending allocations from reserve accounts. Adelina Lyubenova, representing the Initiative Committee of Master Pharmacists, explained that retail outlets cannot replenish inventory when state payments lag behind distribution costs, particularly affecting rural communities served by limited facilities. Nearly 300 pharmaceutical products remain in short supply while regulatory caps restrict profit margins to 30 leva on treatments costing up to 50,000 leva. Business owners demand inclusion in contract negotiations with the National Health Insurance Fund, seeking reduced administrative requirements and proportionate penalties that currently reach 8,000 leva per violation.
