The amendments, which were adopted unanimously and without debates, introduce a methodology related to the provision of financial resources to pharmacies in remote and inaccessible areas working under contracts with the National Health Insurance Fund, or pharmacies that provide around-the-clock service. EUR 1.5 million was earmarked for opening such pharmacies.
