This
Version 3 (Sept04) replaces Version 2 (Aug04), which was
circulated widely as a paper booklet to members and doctors in
August, and which wrongly states in section 3b that the cost of
the drug is covered by Pharmac. It's not, so the cost per vial
to the individual is about $13 (varies between pharmacies). It's
a bit confusing, because Solu-Cortef obtained by a GP on a PSO
(Prescription Supply Order), is fully subsidised |
