4 April 2016 - Consumers, taxpayers and the national health system will benefit from the significant savings being delivered by medicine suppliers since 1 April.

The direct contribution the medicine supply chain is making to these savings will ensure the PBS is sustainable into the future, enabling the reinvestment savings into the funding of new, breakthrough medicines for Australian consumers.

The key players in the medicines supply sector said the consumer benefits of the latest round of PBS reforms – the costs of which are being borne across the sector – are helping to ensure that the PBS remains one element of Australia’s health system that is fiscally sustainable.
