The RACGP wants MS-2 Step added to the prescriber’s bag so patients no longer have to find a registered pharmacist to access medical abortion.

It also wants Medicare to let GPs bill items 36 or 44 for long antenatal consults and for the PBS to subsidise copper long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) as part of a reproductive healthcare overhaul.Â
