Abstract

Improving the quality and efficiency of medical services has become a key strategic goal in recent years.This is driven by population needs and global trends and is reflected in government programs and systemic decisions.However, the changes implemented have not yet fully ensured convenient and high-quality medical care for the population.Consequently, several government statements highlight the importance of directing existing resources toward tangible improvements in service accessibility and quality.Like in other countries, Georgia faces various risks when prescribing medications.One of these is polypharmacy-the unnecessary use and prescribing of many medicines.In EU countries, 1 in every 20 patient prescriptions contains an error related to the number of medications.Ensuring high-quality treatment involves additional verification of the doctor's prescription.
