Dr Dzulkefly: Health Ministry will study concessionaire approach to drug supply

PETALING JAYA: The government will look into whether to use the concessionaire approach for supplying drugs to the Health Ministry, or to open up competition so that drug prices can be lowered, says Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzukefly Ahmad.

The government will look into the various approaches before deciding whether Pharmaniaga’s concession will be renewed after its contract expires in November, he said.
