PHARMACUETICAL COSTS INCREASE AS FROM 1- 1 - 2000
TO CONCESSION CARD HOLDERS WITHOUT NOTICE
NOT EVEN OUR ORGANISATION WHICH IS A
REGISTERED ONE WAS TOLD SO WE COULD
INFORM OUR MEMBERS
Medications now cost $3.30 per item on Script instead of $3.20. Today was
a real wakening that what lays ahead of us may not be very good at all, not
only are they trying to put us back to the work-place, but they are also
not giving us an increase in our Pharmaceutical allowance to cover the
increases in costs of medications, so what hope does any DSP pensioner have ???
This issue is on our Agenda for our February National Conference.
