Pharmacists will diagnose and treat skin conditions from October: Vic Govt
Officials are yet to reveal the exact conditions and medicines covered by the pilot.
The Victorian Government will fund pharmacists to diagnose and treat UTIs, “some mild skin conditions” and to renew contraceptive scripts from October this year.
Premier Daniel Andrews had promised a pharmacist prescribing pilot in the final days of last year’s state election campaign, including taxpayer funding to cover the $20 consults.
