The need to identify beneficiaries when filling prescriptions in pharmacies is expressed in a statement by the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection, Irini Lozidou Nikolaidou.
She notes that despite the directions given by her Office directly, as well as through the Health Insurance Agency, to the bodies involved, it is observed that the correct procedure is still not followed when citizens visit pharmacies.
Some beneficiaries of the GHS continue, when filling prescriptions, instead of showing their identity card, to give the pharmacist their details orally.
