The setting up of the generic drugs store on the hospital premises will ease the medicine shortage at the healthcare facility to a great extent,” he added.The perennial shortage of drugs at the GMCH is proving to be a huge hurdle for providing affordable healthcare to the poor. “The state government’s call for tenders for private agencies to run Jan Aushadhi Kendras at GMCHs around the state has received huge response. Aurangabad: Acting on the Centre’s push for generic drugs, MLA Atul Save has made a pitch for setting up a dedicated generic medicine store — Jan Aushadhi Kendra — at the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in the state assembly.As per Save, the move will be of huge benefit to patients seeking treatment at the hospital, which is forever plagued by drugs shortage.Speaking to TOI on Saturday, Save said he has stepped up the demand for generic medicine store on the premises of the state-run hospital in the ongoing assembly session. With the availability of funds, the medicine shortage will be addressed soon,” Save said.The Jan Aushadhi Kendras run by the department of pharmaceuticals, Government of India, make quality medicines available at affordable prices through exclusive outlets — Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Kendras — to bring down healthcare expenditure. The patients, who are from economically poor background, are often compelled to spend money from their own pockets to buy drugs, vaccines and medicinal supplies from private pharmacies.Though this problem has plagued the government hospital for far too long, the state government’s directive of 2017 to procure medicines only from Haffkine Institute has added to the trouble.As per sources from the hospital, the hospital is yet to receive any funds for the drug procurement.When asked about it, Save said he has given a letter to chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, the medical education minister and the minister of civil supplies and consumer protection, food and drugs administration to make funds available for the drug procurement for the GMCH.“Drug procurement procedure through Haffkine is in its final stages.
