Description

We discuss what could be a significant policy shift in PBS decision-making, with clinical judgement backed by what is a 'common sense' outcome. It could be a new precedent, but only if all stakeholders demand clarity on the criteria so that it can be applied more broadly. We also reflect on patient advocacy in New Zealand, where access has become a political issue and the focus of a significant discussion at this week's Valuing Life Summit in Wellington.
