Minister Zehra Zümrüt Selçuk made a written statement regarding the new decisions taken within the scope of corona virus measures.
In his written statement, Minister Selçuk said, “The medical reports and prescriptions of our chronic patients that expire on March 1 and after will be valid until a second announcement. There will be no need for re-prescription arrangements. The patients who received medicines and medical supplies based on the medical report due to their chronic illness will not need to be re-prescribed. ”
‘TO BE MEETED BY SSI’
