The pharmacy's acceptance of commercial health insurance does not preclude working in it, as long as the work itself is permissible. There is no harm in mandatory health insurance. However, if cooperative Takaful insurance is available, it is not permissible to subscribe to commercial insurance. As for someone who finds no option other than commercial insurance, there is no objection to subscribing to it to the extent that it fulfills a necessity.
