The online referral system of patients to the specialist doctor as well as to receive medicines in the pharmacy through the e-prescription system has been introduced with much fanfare by the Rama government.
It was trumpeted as a system that would eventually settle long queues of patients for a prescription or visit to a specialist doctor.
For this system, 187 million ALL were given in 2021 from the state budget to be maintained, but the latter did not happen, as the system has not been working for 1 week.
The National Information Service Agency has allocated in March 2021, for the maintenance of the e-prescription system 195 million ALL. Maintenance was to be 24 months, while the fund was allocated from the state budget for the Compulsory Health Insurance Fund.
In April 2021, NAIS has finalized the tender where the winner was the company Infosoft Systems worth 187 million ALL without VAT.
But despite these patients have been left without medication for 1 week. The show Fiks Fare brought health centers of the capital and the city of Berat where family doctors express concern that they can not respond to the patient. A doctor at the Health Center No. 9 in the capital says that the situation is very bad for a week, but that it is not their fault.
Meanwhile, another doctor at the Health Center no. 8 says that it is a problem all over Albania.
Even in the Health Center no.7 the system does not work. The doctor indicates that patients who have received the number (code) receive the medication at the pharmacy, but those who have it dated on the day the system does not work are penalized because they have to be given a stamp by the system.
Fiks journalists brought this issue from the 3 health centers of the City of Berat, where family doctors show the problem of the system for several days. “There have been 2-3 days that there have been many problems, I have been forced to stay in the afternoon shift not to leave patients without service, because the afternoon is sometimes open” says the doctor of Health Center no.1
While the doctor of the Health Center no. 3 in Berat avoided saying the problem on camera, he opened the system in the eyes of the journalist, to prove that he was out of order.
Also included in the chain of this system are the pharmacies, in two of which in the capital the journalists of Fiks learned that even they can not enter the system, and that they have tried to give permanent medicines to free patients.
For all these issues, the journalists asked for an answer from the Compulsory Health Care Fund. The latter addressed the responsibility to the National Information Service Agency, which also made the tender.
The director of AKSHI called it a technical problem which according to her will be solved very soon, as it is being worked with maximum attention.
