  2. Country overview Mariam Djankorozova MeTA Country coordinator

  3. Multi-stakeholder process Situation analysis of multi-stakeholders in the Country Organization of MeTA Council in Kyrgyzstan Regular meetings engaging multi-stakeholders Formation of MeTA CSOs Coalition Private sector from remote regions of KG more interested in MeTA than central regions CSOs was active in dialogues with private and government sectors Procurement and availability of medicines is the main issues for CS and private sectors: Implementation of CS observers in tenders (Gov bodies are inviting) Private sector suggested to implement E-procurement system in hospitals

  4. Major achievements and successes Common forum for discussion on pharmaceutical issues Availed platform for Problem solving on significant issues in the sector, including WEB-site (has launched, content in the process of filling) Conduct inter sectoral collaboration via design of activities allowing data gathering and information Improved communication and awareness of different sectors MoH KG Private sector initiated to organise small active group on Legislation issues and regular meetings. Capacity building of the CSO Coalition is considered as the major success in Kyrgyzstan

  5. Overall challenges Current political situation with constrained government management (poor transparency and accountability) Private sector involvement limited due to inadequate information on how to engage in MeTA process How to show the benefit of MeTA to every sector Poor leadership of MeTA Council due to conflict of interest (Director of DRA is chairman of MeTA Council) Overcoming conflict of Interest and engagement between sectors (better understanding of each other & role of each sector in the country) Active promotion of MeTA was not possible because of political situation

  6. Lessons Learned • Different background of MeTA Council Member complicate the dialogue • Development of Criteria for management of MeTA Council requires wider consideration than sectoral interest • Engagement of Multi stakeholder is a Process and takes time • Requires skills to engage and manage the different sectors (particularly to listen to the other sector and increase awareness) • MSP requires good facilitation and these skills need to be development and learnt • Power in numbers… (when we are many we are stronger) • Benefit is important: Private sector wants to be involved more active in Legislation issues. • Media strategy for promoting MeTA it must be at the beginning of process

  8. Public SectorExpertise of current Legislation Djusupova Djanyl Deputy director of NDRA of KG

  9. Summary Analysis at start of MeTA Since gaining independence of KG when the pharmaceutical sector privatized the legal framework corresponding new function requirements in drug provision has been established NDRA KG has been established However, regulatory tools lacked to ensure transparency and accountability in the pharmaceutical sector if basic legislation was available Survey objective: Analysis of legislation, with emphasis on mechanisms of transparency and accountability, including an assessment of the law in practice and existing contradictions

  10. Summary Analysis at start of MeTA The new policy reforms aimed at improving the business environment by removing administrative barriers to business and investment has led to: • A reduction of 30% of licenses and permissions for business activities. • Changing the system of control and inspection of business. • Reduction to 30% of the bodies monitoring business. A significant impact on regulation of pharmaceutical sector: According to advisory group of BEI project medicines were considered as an ordinary product without regard to their characteristics. The adoption of some recommendations could lead to deregulation in pharmaceutical sector: • Activities of wholesalers and manufacturers of medicines and pharmacies (except pharmacies produced medicines extempore) is no longer licensed • MoH standards would be voluntary implemented in pharmaceutical sector • the declaration of compliance with medicines is introducing instead of mandatory certification of medicines • Unilateral recognition of medicine registration Pharmaceutical Inspection has no rights to have unexpected visit , even there are public complaints

  11. Major milestones • META initiated a dialogue with the USAID BEI project involving private sector, NGOs, government and WHO to prevent an imbalance in the regulation of the pharmaceutical sector under an authoritarian approach and non-transparency of the policy • Expert group on legislation analysis conducted meetings with representatives of different sectors: • - Public sector:MoH, MoF, NDRA • - CSOssector • - Private sector • Identified issues and contraventions in legislation were discussed at the Round Table by all parties participated • E- group involving all stakeholders was created to discuss legislation issues

  12. Areas of survey • 1. The main normative documents governing the drug provision in KG: 1.1. Effectiveness of legal documents to ensure transparency of drug provision in KG 1.2. Legal and regulatory shortcomings and contradictions • 2. The patient’s rights on the drug provision and their protection 2.1. Information public support on medicine issues 2.2. Services on the drug provision 2.3. The possibility of appeal by patients of their rights on the drug provision • 3. State regulation 3.1. Regulation of licensing issues concerning the drug provision 3.2. Bodies authorized to control the drug provision 3.3. The system of state control efficiency and drug safety • 4. Responsibility for the public health

  13. Challengeswith legislative features 1. Contradictions in certain normative documents including differences in terminology 2. It is necessary to improve the regulatory framework (conflict of interests of NDRA and exclusion of obsolete rules) 3. Medicines included in the scope of the Law "On the basis of technical regulation in the Kyrgyz Republic” 4. New rules of establishment of regulation status may lead to the fact that regulations of the drug provision will cease to be binding 5. Inadequacy of certain legislation (complication of pharmaceutical inspection, law enforcement pressure on pharmacies) 6. The lack of legislative mechanisms to ensure transparency and accountability in the pharmaceutical sector

  14. Challengeswith executive features 1. Procurement: • The inaccessibility of information on procurement of medicines, except for procurement announcement • Violation of procurement procedures • 2. Licensing system: • No transparency in issue of licenses • There is no public information on licensed pharmacies • Lack of information management system in the pharmaceutical sector 3. Disciplinary-executive: • - Competence of documentation requirement by certain control agencies (prosecution or other fiscal bodies)

  15. Recommendations ofStakeholders (1) • Increasing the responsibility of officials (administrative, criminal, disciplinary) • Obligatory support information of patients including information on ADR • To introduce standards for the number of pharmacies in a particular area To attract the local government to monitor the activities of pharmacies • Promotion of ethic code of pharmacist • To introduce bar code for medicines • To ensure timely review of list of medicines reimbursed

  16. Recommendations ofStakeholders (2) Tender: • to implement e-procurement (legalize the flow of documents in electronic format). • to introduce ethic standards for the members of tender commission • to introduce criteria for medicine procurement to procure quality medicines (price should not be sole criterion) • Information: • Increasing public awareness • Information on the DRA website: • Licensed pharmacies , • Certified products, • Registered medicines • To introduce provisional regulations on period of medicine certification

  17. Lessons Learned • Working with different sectors revealed a significant lack of information in the pharmaceutical sector (indicated by all parties) • Private sector and NGOs are ready to participate in development and enhancement of legislation through: • Establishing working group involving all sectors to address specific laws • Establishing groups to lobby for promotion of certain laws • The system of regular meetings, newsletters, online forums • Involvement of all stakeholders enhances the process of improving the legislation and its implementation • Activities META promote confidence-building between the sectors
