According to the website Nashi Groshi, citing the Bulletin of State Procurement, the Ministry of Health of Ukraine concluded a number of agreements on the supply of medical equipment and pharmaceuticals worth a total of UAH 229,710,000 from December 8-15, based on the results of tenders.
Lumiere Pharma LLC received the largest amount for the supply of medications for the treatment of patients with viral hepatitis B and C. This company, controlled by Petro Bagriy, president of the Ukrainian Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association, will receive a total of UAH 122,040,000 for the supply of medications.
The same medications were offered by two competitors of Lumiere Pharma, and their price was 30% lower. Valartin Pharma LLC offered the Ukrainian-made drug Alfapeg® Peginterferon alfa-2b. However, three days before the bids were unveiled on December 4, the Ministry of Health temporarily banned the use of Alfapeg by terminating its registration certificate. The Ministry of Health of Ukraine suddenly received complaints about the drug's instructions for use.
UKRBIOTEKHNOLOGIYA-tm proposed the same Ukrainian-made drug, but its application was also rejected due to incomplete documentation. The Ministry of Health discovered that the submitted documents indicated that UKRBIOTEKHNOLOGIYA was leasing warehouses from Interpharm until the end of 2014. However, starting in the new year, according to the Ministry, these warehouses will belong to another company, MDMIinvest. UKRBIOTEKHNOLOGIYA did not provide a contract with this company. The company also failed to provide documentation regarding the lease of warehouse furniture and equipment.
Bagriy's companies began to make good money during Raisa Bogatyreva's tenure at the Ministry of Health. His companies specialize in supplying medications for the Oncology, Tuberculosis, AIDS, Multiple Sclerosis, and other programs.
It was previously reported that the drug Bicalutamide for the treatment of cancer patients would be supplied by the company "Ukroppostach" from the group of Petro Bagriy.
