Aasandha, the state's universal health insurance provider, announced a new system under which medication is issued only after a dispensing code sent to the patient's mobile phone is entered into the pharmacy's system. The scheme has cost the state MVR 1.5 billion so far in 2023.

Patients will receive a dispensing code on their mobile phones when they go to the pharmacy to pick up your medicine. The code will expire within an hour
