Tab. Morphine proscribed by doctors of empanelled hospitals neither issue nor giving proscription to purchase from agency
Every time asked to visit concerned doctor and obtain proscription for which they are giving permission letter
Every 10 to 15 days forces patient to visit empanelled hospitals for only get the proscription, though next review more than 30 days
Patient with tab. Morphine since 01122018
It’s up hill tasks to arrange same every 10 days
Can this procedure may simplified and cghs doctors maybe authorised to give at least proscription based on advice of spl. Doctors who is treating the patient
Thanks with regards in anticipation early deemed action
