Alliance MP Albana Bytyqi has criticised the lack of medicines in public health institutions, saying patients are being forced to borrow money to provide needed therapy.

During the Assembly hearing, Bytyqi put them in front of Health Minister Arben Vitita, a letter written in: Take money and buy medicine. Arben Vitia is here.

After this moment, Vetevendosje Movement MP Adriana Matoshi has improved MP Bytyqi’s formulation on paper.

In her speech, Bytyqi has said it is unacceptable that in 2026 citizens are forced into debt to buy drugs that the state owes to provide through health institutions.

In 2026 a Kosovo citizen is forced to borrow money to buy drugs that the state, through its health institutions, owes to him. In our country we have patients who, due to the lack of these drugs in public health institutions, are forced to buy them with their own money, entering debt and financial obligations just to continue treatment. So, Minister, we’re not just talking about an administrative problem here, but we’re talking about people’s lives, patients who need timely therapy, she said.
