A new government implementation plan for regulatory reform has been decided, and the government will consider buying a new corona antigen test kit at pharmacies without face-to-face pharmacist guidance and will reach a conclusion by September.

The new implementation plan was decided by an extraordinary cabinet meeting.


The implementation plan includes more than 440 deregulation measures.



In the medical / long-term care field, when buying a new corona antigen test kit at a pharmacy, face-to-face guidance from a pharmacist is currently required. I'm going to make a conclusion.



In addition, at present, the place for online medical treatment, which is limited to homes and hospitals, has been expanded to public halls that are close to daily life, and pharmacists are responsible for the work of nurses in the field of home medical care. We are considering promoting the division of duties.



In addition, in the field of justice, we will promptly consider the introduction of IT in criminal procedures with a view to submitting the necessary bills to the Diet next year and the 5th year of Reiwa while respecting the autonomous judgment of the judiciary. ..
