The government issued a decision, which bans promotional ads of
people who have no medical education or medical services which are
not licensed by the state. Up to today, all medical services had the
right to advertise themselves. The new government decision ensures
new requirements for medical service promotion.
Suren Krmoyan, adviser to the minister of health on legal issues,
told a briefing today saying, "Non registered medicine is prohibited
to be advertised similar to drugs and special prescription medicine,"
he said.
The government imposes lighter requirements for the advertisement of
medical equipment.
Krmoyan said the ministry of health has the right to grant the
permission for advertisement within 20 days.
After 20 days the applicant has the right to post his/her advertisement
in any mass media outlet.
Krmoyan said the ministry will collect no money for giving the
permission.
