The Hon. Lieutenant Commander (Rtd.) Prageeth Madhuranga
Raised a supplementary question on difficulties faced by disabled war veterans receiving treatment at tri-forces hospitals when prescribed medicines are unavailable and must be locally purchased later. He asked whether arrangements could be made to send such medicines to the nearest tri-forces camp or police station for collection, avoiding an additional hospital visit.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 My second supplementary: Disabled war heroes obtaining treatment at tri-forces hospitals often face unavailability of medicines; items are locally purchased and given after about three days, forcing another trip. Can arrangements be made to courier such medicines to the nearest tri-forces camp or Police Station for easy collection, avoiding a return hospital visit?
