OPEN APPEAL TO THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH

Dear officials of the Ministry of Health! Information circulating about the situation at the clinic of a healer known in the Fergana region as "The Only One in Fergana" is raising serious questions among the public.

It is reported that some patients are being recommended prescriptions costing nearly 4 million soums for a month's supply of medication.

Resept

Elderly individuals, whose pensions are around 700,000 soums, cannot afford to purchase even the cheapest set of medications.

Resept

In this regard, we have several questions for the Ministry of Health.

Sog'liqni saqlash vazirligi

Does this institution or the individual operating it have the legal right to engage in medical or folk healing practices as established by law?

Are the recommended medications registered in the state registry? By what procedure are they selected and on what basis are they recommended to patients?

Why are patients with limited financial means not offered cheaper or alternative treatment methods?

Which state body oversees the pricing of these services and medications?

Most importantly, has the Ministry of Health conducted an investigation into these activities? If not, when will it be conducted?

A person's illness should never become a source of income. People seek healing, not financial ruin.

If this information circulating on social media is true, it must be given a legal and medical assessment. If the information is incorrect, an official and substantiated explanation should also be provided.

The public expects the Ministry of Health not to remain indifferent to this situation and to provide an official response to ensure legality, transparency, and the interests of citizens.
