👉 A partir del primer día hábil de 2025, la receta electrónica se convierte en el único medio viable para acceder a medicamentos, según lo estipulado por la Ley 27.553 reglamentada en julio de 2024. Esta medida busca agilizar y transparentar el proceso de prescripción y seguimiento de medicamentos, facilitando la interacción entre paciente, médico y farmacéutico. Sin embargo, se plantean interrogantes sobre su implementación en sectores con brecha digital o limitaciones para acceder a tecnología.

00:00It's a law that was passed in July of 2024,
00:04Law 27,553,
00:06precisely to put into practice the electronic prescription.
00:10At that time, when it was passed,
00:13it was said 120 days from now for re-adjustment.
00:20Well, this was fulfilled precisely on December 31st,
00:24that's why it's the first day of the year that I'm
00:27only to access the drugs,
00:31the only viable, the only possible way is the electronic prescription.
00:36This is what is sought, it is sought that the access is faster,
00:40that it is more transparent, that you can follow the course of the prescription
00:45and also a faster interaction between patient, doctor and pharmacy.
00:50First and brief questions that come to my mind.
00:53I ask the doctor for the prescription, he sends it to me directly,
00:56he can send it to me by WhatsApp, by email, I send it back to the pharmacy,
00:59it goes straight to the pharmacy.
01:01No, in most cases it goes straight to the pharmacy, yes?
01:05It's the same thing that happens, look, here's something,
01:08we always talk about the issue of PAMI for other reasons.
01:11PAMI has an absolutely oiled electronic prescription system,
01:17because they have been coming with electronic prescriptions for years.
01:20The doctor, the specialist, be it the head doctor or a specialist doctor,
01:25sends it directly to the pharmacy.
01:27Now, the prescription has to meet certain requirements
01:31where there can be no lack of exhaustive data from the doctor
01:35and exhaustive data from the patient.
01:37I wonder what's going to happen with those cases of people who,
01:41maybe, let's say, is an adult and not, well, anyone,
01:46because until we get used to it, everything, let's say,
01:48the digital barrier, let's say, crosses all of us,
01:51what's going to happen to those who are not yet so used to this electronic prescription?
01:56There will be no other way, look, there are two possible inconveniences,
02:00not inconveniences or exceptions.
02:03If there was a manual prescription that was extended to you five days ago,
02:09the pharmacy has to take it because a prescription usually has a validity of 60 days.
02:15So, they extended it to you in December,
02:18when the electronic prescription was not valid, you can use it.
02:22Ah, 60 days, not 30 days in a row?
02:2430 days, no, no, I said 60 days because that's what I thought it was.
02:29It could be that it would be 30.
02:30I think it's 60.
02:31I understand that it's 60 days.
02:33The important thing is that there will be a moment
02:35when there will be a transition from paper to digital and they will accept it anyway.
02:40Something that pharmacists were commenting today
02:43and it had to do with the fact that the rest of the process,
02:45that one that happens when they take the drug, cut the trochle,
02:49stick it in the prescription, will continue to happen.
02:52That will continue to happen.
02:54That will continue to happen because there are drugs that just require this.
02:58And with respect to the other exception,
03:00what happens if you cannot issue or cannot issue an electronic prescription?
03:06Because there are problems with the systems, as Lu said,
03:08because there are people who live really limited with a lot of issues,
03:14with lack of access, more than anything else in the interior of the country,
03:18the manual prescription will be taken through an exceptional way
03:22because you cannot leave it to the patient without medication.
03:25I think it's important to emphasize this
03:27because I wish we all had the same access,
03:29that's the word, the one you mentioned, Clari,
03:32but it's not a reality.
03:34There are many people who do not have either a cell phone device,
03:38or the possibility of receiving it because they don't have a signal
03:43or because they don't have a way to pay a fee.
03:47I say, this happens.
03:48Obviously, we know that there are two cell phones per inhabitant,
03:52but that's a very generic number,
03:54it's not that it's really like that, it's an average,
03:58but there are people who don't have it, there are people who have three.
04:01That's why there is an option.
04:04I think the most important thing to highlight
04:08is that the doctor must leave all his data,
04:12must give his specialty,
04:14in the case of the patient, he has to show his social work or prepayment,
04:18his personal data and the diagnosis by which that medication is given.
04:23Something fundamental that perhaps now is achieved,
04:27medications have to be prescribed by generic name
04:31or international common denomination,
04:34and it is given to the option of the commercial brand,
04:37but it has to be prescribed by generic name.
