Prime minister orders funding focus for medicines
The directive prioritizes cancer, heart-disease and chronic-condition treatments.
Iraq’s prime minister directed that appropriate financial allocations be made to the Health Ministry, with priority for medicines and medical supplies. The directive specifically highlighted cancer, heart disease and chronic illnesses.
Reliable medicine provision is a high-public-interest issue for patients and families, particularly where treatment requires regular access. The impact will depend on the release of funds and the ministry’s procurement and distribution plans.
