This study focused on pharmacoeconomic issues affecting pharmacists in residential hospices in Poland. We conducted a questionnaire survey among hospice pharmacists and their managers. The results revealed that the amount of money received from the National Health Fund is insufficient for drug purchasing and therefore hospices often raise additional funds from external sources. Because of the limited financing, pharmacists and hospice directors undertake various activities to reduce costs. Generic drug reimbursement, pharmacoeconomic analysis and participating in tenders to purchase drugs are the most common measures undertaken to decrease expenditure.
本研究聚焦于影响波兰住院临终关怀机构药剂师的药物经济学问题。我们对临终关怀机构的药剂师及其管理人员进行了问卷调查。结果显示,从国家卫生基金获得的资金数额不足以购买药品,因此临终关怀机构经常从外部来源筹集额外资金。由于资金有限,药剂师和临终关怀机构主任采取各种活动来降低成本。报销通用药物、进行药物经济学分析以及参与药品采购招标是为减少支出而采取的最常见措施。
