Greeks overspending on medicine, tests: health minister
Greeks are still overspending on unnecessary medicine and hospital tests, burdening social welfare funds as the country struggles with its debt crisis, the health minister said on Wednesday.
Warning of a ``catastrophe'' that would leave Greeks subsisting on food stamps and the country wallowing in bankruptcy, Greek leaders urged lawmakers on Saturday to pass more painful spending cuts on the eve of a crucial vote to qualify for a massive bailout.
