The Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) has announced the start implementing the home delivery service of medicines in cooperation with Qatar Post, by communicating with phone numbers through the "WhatsApp" app, which was allocated to each health center.
PHCC said that the medicine home delivery service aims to limit patient visits to health centers and to assure the keenness of community members to stay at home to curb the spread of the coronavirus (Covid-19).
The medicine delivery service is requested by patients via communicating on WhatsApp numbers for each health center from Sunday to Thursday (from 8 am until 2 pm and from 4 pm to 10 pm), while the service stops during the weekend (Friday and Saturday).
PHCC added that the medicine delivery service was launched as a first stage for Qatari citizens only, and it will be generalized to all soon, for free.
As for medicine fees, they are free for Qataris and for the category exempt from paying the fees and for citizens of the Gulf Cooperation Council states, while the payment of medicine fees for non-exempt and residents will be by bank card when delivering medicine where cash is not accepted.
PHCC stressed the continuous work to facilitate access to all services by the best available means in order to maintain the continuity of their provision and develop them in a manner commensurate with the current situation.
