What PAMI covers at 100% discount in December 2025
Full coverage is available for three drug groups:
A) Essential medications included in vademecum
The list brings together more than 160 medications used to treat common chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and respiratory diseases. A recent court ruling ordered the restoration of the previous version of the list, again increasing the number of drugs covered.
b) Expensive treatments and serious diseases
It includes comprehensive coverage for treatments for cancer, HIV, hepatitis B and C, hemophilia, organ transplantation, and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. These medicines have high prices and are part of a special savings plan.
c) Medicines that do not appear in the formulary
In these cases, the member can receive 100% through social support, as long as he meets the financial requirements or goes through exceptional situations.
