Pharmacy Guild wins big again as pollies promise $150 million for PBS price cut
It is claimed that the guild's campaign was about fending off pharmacy competition from Chemist Warehouse
The Pharmacy Guild of Australia has chalked up another big lobbying win after the major parties pledged to cut PBS co-payment thresholds, at a cost of $150 million a year.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison fronted a pharmacy in Tasmania on Saturday, declaring that the general cap for a script would fall from $42.50 to $32.50 if the government was re-elected.
