The Obra Social del Estado Fueguino (OSEF) has taken steps to address medication distribution and security. Initially, the organization announced plans to file criminal complaints after discovering the illegal sale of medications on social media. These drugs, which are provided free to OSEF beneficiaries, were being sold without sanitary oversight, posing what the institution described as a “grave health risk” and causing economic damage.

Following these security concerns, OSEF moved to expand its formal distribution network. The organization signed an agreement with the pharmacy chain Farmacity, allowing affiliates to access prescriptions through over 300 branches nationwide. This partnership, formalized by Governor Gustavo Melella and OSEF President Gustavo García, aims to assist members residing outside of Tierra del Fuego and is part of a broader strategy to reorganize the agency’s medical benefits.
