Australians will be able to get cheaper medications from September 1 after the Parliament passed the Government's changes to allow 60-day dispensing and a last-ditch effort by the Coalition to block it failed.
Key Points
- Changes in the 60-day dispensing will take effect on September 1.
- The change applies to more than 300 common subsidised medication already on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme and will be rolled out in three stages.
- Six million Australians will soon be able to access cheaper medication.
