Can I Kiss If I Have Hpv Warts In The Tongue ?

http://migueljara.wordpress.com/ new blog on illegal incentives to prescribe drugs

Sometimes I reported the bribery and corruption doctors who practice for pharmaceutical companies to prescribe their brand preparations. But the problem of the incentives in prescribing also occurs with generic drugs (those produced after the expiry of the patent to a much lower price).
l E newspaper El Norte de Castilla published recently that the incentive of 2,600 euros that many primary care physicians have become the Junta de Castilla y León as a reward for prescribing generic drugs is completely illegal. The Superior Court of Justice in the region has issued a firm statement that emphasizes the freedom that should be free to any physician to prescribe drugs deemed appropriate for each patient without being under pressure or promises of rewards or incentives if opts for a particular type. Demand refers to incentives paid in 2006, which value the previous year, and in Palencia gained 77 doctors, 29.28% of those practicing in Primary, they perceived 195,000 euros (102 in 2007, who received 228,144 euros). In Castilla y León were 886 beneficiaries physicians who perceived EUR 2,303,600 (1,020 last year that claimed 2,255,446 euros). nothing too ago we read in the media that a prosecutor asks for five and half years imprisonment in the trial being held in the Audiencia Provincial de Cádiz, to a physician at the Hospital Puerta del Mar and an employee the pharmaceutical company Madaus, accused of defrauding the Andalusian Health Service (SAS) almost 9,000 euros by issuing fraudulent prescriptions .
As I explained a person who has exercised the medical visit for one of the largest laboratories in Europe (under investigation, by the way, the competition authorities of the European Union for trying to delay the introduction of generic market), "my former manager and his boss suggested 'without accepting no for an answer', all kinds of tricks to spend the advertising budget to go around the code of ethics. If the answer was 'no', you became persona non pleasant for them, the 'clan'. "
