Democratic Party of Kosovo MP Sala Jashari has sought responsibility from Health Minister Arben Vitita for the lack of oncological drugs and delays in providing therapy for cancer patients.
During the intervention in the Assembly, Jashar has raised concern about the case of a cancer patient who had not received the necessary therapy before she died.
She has said that patients, in addition to coping with the disease, are forced to face difficulties in providing treatment.
Besides the disease, citizens face yet another battle, providing therapy, Jashari has declared.
Addressing Minister Vitita, she has stressed that the delay in providing drugs is not just an administrative issue, but may have serious consequences for patients.
For you it may be only a delayed tender, but for that woman there were four months waiting while the disease does not wait, she said.
Jashari has demanded that providing essential drugs, treating cancer patients and improving health conditions be real priorities in Kosovo’s budget.
We want to send a clear message: health, treatment of cancer patients, emergency medicine insurance, and improved health conditions should be real budgetary priorities, and not just promises on paper.
