The Supreme Court recognizes for the first time that rules on margins, deductions and discounts are linked to the RDL 5, 2000

-the TS suspends RD 823/2008 challenge procedure until the Constitutional Court did not give its opinion on the unconstitutionality of the RD 5, 2000

Madrid, 2011-January for the first time the Supreme Court recognizes the relationship of interdependence between standards that set margins, deductions and discounts and the RDL 5, 2000. For this reason it has decided to suspend the procedure of challenge of RD 823/2008 of May 16, which are set margins, deductions and discounts related to the distribution and dispensing of medicinal products for human use, until the Constitutional Court does not address the question of unconstitutionality of the RDL 5, 2000. Thus, the TS agrees “ declare the nullity of the order of date twenty-first day of June of the year one two thousand and ten, and suspend the present proceedings until that is resolved the question of unconstitutionality which brings causes the contested Law ”.

For FEFE, appellant in the appeal process, this resolution is “ important ” because until today the TS had never admitted the linkage to the RDL 5/2000 of the Royal Decrees 1328 / 2402, 2003 / 2004 and 823/2008. FEFE always said that these rules are nothing more than changes to RDL 5/2000 of 23 June, measures of rationalization of the use of medicinal products and public pharmaceutical expenditure containment urgent and therefore emanate each other.

Freedom of prescription

press release

Madrid, 2011-January situation on pharmaceutical policy issues taking place in various autonomous communities, where a limitation of the vademecum of drug and therapeutic products or implement certain strategies of pharmacy cost containment is generating, that they do not take account of the exercise of the medical professionals, the Spanish society of physicians in primary care (SEMERGEN) wants to highlight the following arguments:

-Que SEMERGEN from institutional loyalty, will always encourage and boosts the sustainability of the national system of health policies in all of its partnersrespecting and promoting ethics and the criteria for scientific evidence, which should always govern any medical act.

-The professional freedom entails responsibility for self-regulation of behavior and medical activity. Be aware of health expenditure is an essential element of such self-regulation, being specially qualified doctors making decisions aimed to take control, which to some extent, should be used as a pretext to deny patients the services they need. Take responsibility for this self-control ensures the right of the doctor to treat their patients without interference in his professional career.

– Remember that the exercise of the medical profession must be carried out with full technical autonomy (article 4.7 of the I-2003-), ensuring patients have the doctor you consult independent moral and technical, as well as freedom in prescribing (Declaration of Nuremberg and Lisbon).

-Therefore, the physician must have freedom of prescription and technical conditions to enable it to act with independence and quality assurance. In the event that these conditions are not fulfilled, should inform the managing body of assistance and the patient (art. 20 of the code of ethics and deontology of the WTO).

On the basis of the foregoing, we call on public administrations to increase dialogue with healthcare professionals and to the Ministry of health, Social Affairs and equality, to lead a process of dialogue and consensus with the autonomous communities and professional organizations, to agree on whatever measures affect in this regard to the sustainability of the health system and freedom of fármaco-terapéutica prescription.

Letter open offices in Andalusia Confederation Secretary General quality and modernization of the Junta de Andalucía.

Letter opened offices in Andalusia Confederation Secretary General quality and modernization of the Board of Andalusia.

Mr. Secretary-General of quality and modernización:

Spain, January of 2011- the last day, 3 January 2011, underpinning other manifestations of Mr Gutiérrez in other media (Diario de Sevilla or El País Edition Andalusia), were published in “Diario Médico” declarations that, as it relates to the pharmaceutical profession and its business aspectsthey are very worrying, looking like that proposed by the Ministry of Health offers pharmacists are that “not be may reject”.

First of all, you know, under Spanish law, which bid active principles from the Administration to force to pharmacies to buy them and stores to distribute them, it is contrary to the Spanish law, which should also subsume all the Andalusian legislation. And the reference in those statements that the Administration will stay with discount for volume purchases is even suspected. We could cite a number of regulations, laws, Royal Decrees, ministerial orders, regional laws, common sense dictates, even rulings of various courts, whether Spanish or European, that they would clearly support the position of CEOFA, that is, on the illegality of the proposals made for tender early assets.

Let us that we send you the way that counseling is crazy; give it a twist more pharmacies, as the Manager of the SAS, will be expensive, both each pharmacist and society. Really what worries us most is that both the universalization of the provision and the cohesion of the national system of health is breaking with the proposals of the SAS,

You as Secretary General of quality and modernization, to propose measures of tender forget that quality and modernization which calls his Department should be projected to the productive fabric of Andalusia, and him calling the Administration is that he rationalized his performance, not to ruin the business structure of their territory.

With the implementation of the measures adopted at the RRDDLL 4 and 8 of 2010 it has descapitalizado the pharmacy. spending on drugs, keeping the number of recipes in continuous growth parameters, it has fallen in Andalusia from June to October 2010 (for 2009) an average of 7.10% according to the Observatory of the medicine for Andalusia October 2010. But the volume of work in pharmacies is greater. For sale by auction of evils, that counseling is “collapse” proposing to tighten over a situation that is outrageously dangerous for the sector. It seems that the general secretariat to propose such a measure, is not aware of the damage they cause in the quality of care, as well as the enterprise mess and the consequences that levels of investment will be screened on Andalusia.

On the other hand, as recognized in the statements of the 3rd, against its measures for containment of expenditure on medicines a barrage of resources fall. Not only the pharmaceutical industry will make use of its extent, but that the entire stand, among them CEOFA. If the Ministry of health intends to actually carry out his system of active policy via tender, will not have no choice, given his obvious and blatant illegality, that both carried the Spanish courts as Europeans. It is then when see who give reason.

Finally, the path to be followed by the Ministry to “adjust the pharmaceutical expenditure” without considering other measures that impact on the demand side is exhausted. It is a path without return, not only does not contain the expenditure that will increase the indebtedness, in the same line occurring currently with hospital costs. And this is a reality that you know well.
