Everyone who is eligible for publicly-funded health and disability services should in most cases not have to pay to pick up subsidised medicines at pharmacies.
I didn't learn about this until today.

Seem to have left the co payment of Community Services cards for now.
Yeah, I'm glad they left that one active.
Me too.
Asshole government making life harder and costing the health system more money in the long term.
It's such a weird way to subsidise tax cuts. I guess it wasn't free for long so they wanted to get it changed back before people thought if it as a new fee instead of an end to a short period of free prescriptions.
