Another proposal of the Union of Pharmacists in Greece to the government
is to adjust higher pharmaceutical education to other fields in order not to offer young students only opening of a pharmacy as the sole purpose of getting a diploma. They should be offered other opportunities for professional development that actually exist now. According to the pharmacists, there is a minimum number of pharmacists in the largest health insurance fund IKA and there are 83 vacant jobs in hospitals.

We are ready to help but we are not to be
ruined – this is the main message from the interview with Thanasis Papatanasis who is secretary general of the Greek Pharmaceutical Union:

- One of the thorns for you, the pharmacists, in the bill is the cancellation of restrictions on ownership. What is your suggestion?
