there should be controlled price for medical check ups too. As poor folks has to pay a huge fee to doctor consulting and has to buy quarter of the prescribed medicines which will not cure as the dosage of the intended medication is missing. via DM Android App

Hats off for both Prof. Senaka Bibile for his hard work and all the Cabinet Ministers who voted for.

WOW. That sound good. Does this mean that govt hospitals will not give prescriptions to patients to buy drugs from outside and that they will issue all medicines free. The way the things are happening these days, it seams like god is looking at Sri Lankans.

Excellent move. Mandating the generic drug name and giving the option for doctors to give a recommended brand name in brackets is a good trade off - win win. Consumers have the necessary information to make an informed buying decision.

so what you are trying to say is the chemist is the person who is going to decide the brand which can be a junk from India, Where the chemist gets more profit. In foreign countries when the drug is prescribed in generics the patient gets the original brand or the FDA approved generic brand. In Srilanka????

Doctor writes the generic name as ruled and pharmacy gives the brand that pharmacy prefers with the high margin. very few patients may know to contest the matter with the pharmacy. If the doctor writes the low cost drug that is all about the control

This is a very good move to stop professional muffia in Sri Lanka. it should be noted that many professionals who have studied using public funds (free education) will definitely be against since they may use many lucrative things such as foreign trips etc.

Nothing is for free,but a small fee for services in public hospitals will be charged which will include some types of drugs only.
