Quasul-Nadal Health Mc Nomaku has poured cold water in the shortage of important medical products in Public Health Facilities.
This follows recent reports that the Department has left medical products due to austerity measures imposed by the national and provincial government.
Simeline said the department feels the effects of budget cuts Changes for some service provider payments, resulting in late payment between November and January.
“Then we have been able to reach a position that all our service providers have been paid, because when our fiscal year ends, everything we need to pay by the end of March must be resolved,” he said. “Yes. At one point it was a challenge – one or two companies decided to stop their drugs because they did not pay – but it was sorted.”
He said that when a supplier was high by the orders of different provinces simultaneously, some drug deficiency was “normal.”
“It happens when there is a service provider selling a certain kind of drugs used by all provinces of the country.”
In this situation this does not mean that a patient will be treated, because the pharmacists know what alternatives should use.
Drugs and clinics running in Simeline Government Hospitals were exaggerated.
However, the Public Employees Union (BSA) and South Africa’s Democratic Nursing Organization (Tenosa) say there is a shortage of drugs in public amenities.
Tenosa said that globiccol, ARV therapy ABC 300 MG and 3 TC 150 MG and pregnancy tests were not available.
In his letter on Tuesday, provincial president Swagel Mangwango raised the matter with KZN Premier Tamil Entuli.
But Simeline retreated, and last week at its provincial drug distribution depot, the department tried to resolve those fears, confirming that the province did not leave the medical stocks.
He said the claims were made from persons who opposed the management system introduced by the department in December to focus on the purchase process of the drug. This can help you take care of what is to be noticed and ensure the best stock management so they can improve the use of the defined budget.
“In the past you have been ordering medicines at the speed you want. We cannot continue to work because the government has no money.
Simlane said that the decision was not satisfied with some purchase managers and that he believed that they may be in the demanding demands.
