Spanish Hospitals May Lose Drug Supply on Debts, El Pais Says

 

Spanish hospitals risk having their drug supplies cut off because they’ve accumulated unpaid bills of more than 6 billion euros ($7.9 billion), El Pais reported. Some companies have already stopped selling pharmaceuticals to the regions of Valencia and Andalucia because they have failed to pay for products used more than two years ago, the newspaper said, citing a speech by Humberto Arnes, director of the pharmaceutical industry’s lobby group.
