In Estonia the personal packaging (dividing-up into retail packaging for dispensing) of medicines is performed by community pharmacies (currently there is one pharmacy offering such service). The service itself is not reimbursed by the Estonian Health Insurance Fund. The price paid for the personal packaing by the patient is defined by the service fee from the pharmacy. Regular reimbursement percentages apply for the Rx medicines used (as would for the patient if they got their Rx medicines from the community pharmacy in regular packages, undivided for dispensing). For OTC medicines and food supplements, campaign prices may apply, if relevant (depending on the ongoing campaigns/client programs in the pharmacy). More information from the pharmacy website (unfortunately only in Estonian): https://www.apotheka.ee/teenused/ravimite-personaalne-pakendamine Please let me know if any additional information is necessary.
