Part of the drugs obtained on humanitarian basis is written out in medical institutions by the names of random people, after which it is sold. The RA President Control Service came to such conclusions after the research done recently regarding 2011 and 2012.

It was found out as a result of observations done in several healthcare institutions (the names are not yet published by the Control Service) that the drugs and medical items obtained on humanitarian basis are sold by the hospitals to the people receiving medical treatment.

The President Serj Sargsyan knew something when he qualified the situation existing in the healthcare sector as ‘deformity’. Let us note that all this is rooted in the past and now it’s still hard to say whether the current Healthcare Minister will succeed in achieving positive results. He has the intention, but only that is not enough…

However, no doubt that some corrupt manipulations connected with the drugs and medical items obtained on humanitarian basis will face certain consequences: many diasporans and in general people abroad, who could send drugs and medical items to Armenia on humanitarian and non-reciprocal basis, are abstaining from the realization of their intentions, since they perfectly imagine what is going on in Armenia. In this regard everyone is suffering because of corruption, both the patients and medical institutions and the state, which has no other choice but buying the necessary drugs and medical items previously not obtained on humanitarian basis by the means of the state budget.

Moreover, the RA President Control Service revealed that there are many drugs and medical items in the humanitarian camps reserves with the total amount of 10 containers, which are outdated as a result of bad allocation and are now subject to destruction. We should note that besides the demand of enormous expenses connected with the destruction of tones of outdated, spoiled goods, our country faces a serious ecological issue. Instead of providing benefits they became detrimental for the state as a result of someone’s mistake or corrupt interests. The Supervision Service finds it necessary to note that medical institutions do not properly destroy the medical waste. It appears that the situation has not changed much since the disclosures by the Control Chamber of the RA of the medical waste last year.
