The work done at the main facility is primarily working with pharmacists who prescribe drugs for patients, DKV is then contacted by the pharmacist and they in turn pay for it or work with the patient per special cases. This was a cool trip because I got to see the insurance side of pharmacy.
Silvia Agullo then provided us a course on corporate social responsibility. She not only outlined how corporations are trending toward more "Green" branding, but that consumers were more willing to forgo luxuries if it meant getting more healthy fruits, vegetables, and meats. In short, the green revolution is starting with our stomachs.
She began and ended her presentation with how DKV and many for that matter all companies are finding it more profitable in the long run to not only work towards gaining a profit, but profit by working ethically.
We got back early and it was around 60 degrees so we went to the beach, some people jumped in, but that just wasn't happening. I finally had an excuse to use the panaramic view...
In the middle of the day I went to El Corte Ingles which is like Macy's except this store had a 4th and 5th section for appliances and food. It was absolutely packed but I forged again, found a sweet coat, and even helped an elderly spanish man find his way to the televisions.
At night we walked around Barceloneta which is the medieval part of town. We wanted to get into the church Santa Maria del Mar, but it was closed by the time we got there, I plan on going back again. I love the Architecture.
I had some weird looking fish for dinner that actually tasted ok. I also had octopus, that was great.
