Great news for ADHDers in Aotearoa;
"Pharmac is now funding a new medicine and has removed renewal criteria for ADHD treatments."
Until recently, people taking ADHD medication have had to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars every 2 years for a medication review. Pharmac is now trusting GPs to do this for their patients, saving hundreds of hours of psychiatrists' time every year.

CW: Another step in the journey to reform Pharmac
In the conversations I have had with cancer patients, two common themes emerge. First, a deep sense of betrayal that in their time of need, and after having paid years of taxes, the government has treated them like a dog that needs to be put down. The prevailing attitude from cancer patients towards the government is, “they don’t care. I’m going to die, so why delay the inevitable?”.
Second, they are immensely proud of advocating for change and do so in the hope that one day Pharmac will become patient-focused, and others won’t have to suffer the same cruel fate and beg for their lives, or the lives of those they love.
Malcolm Mulholland from the group 'Patent Voice Aotearoa' is presenting a submission to Parliament today to increase Phrmac's funding.

"... because Bennett will now be governing a public agency specially designed to have an arms-length relationship with the government of the day, to retain public confidence in Pharmac’s integrity, she will have to display total independence from the ministers that she is closely associated with."
