- SkettieMemberHi Ann, I did my treatment publically. Since finishing I've switched over to private for my follow ups etc.

I pay minimal for all my pharmacy prescriptions even though I am a private patient. My medical fund wont reimburse me as the cost is below the gov. set price so I am keeping the receipts and I will claim a percentage on my tax. If your benefits have been cancelled make sure you contact Medicare and get your safety net "switched on" so you can get some relief financially.
- SkettieMemberHi Ann, I didn't have to pay anything for mine or for my tablets. Sorry you're sick allowance has been cancelled. The rules around services etc. seem a little warped at times. Good luck for your treatment.

Hi Ann
I think I paid approx $35 through public system every time. The actual injections cost is about $1325?? but thank god we only pay a portion of that.

Everything seems to be free for me - I pay nothing for any of the treatments, but I elected private so I guess it'sall covered by my fund.
It should be free for everyone regardless. We didn't ask for this disease.

I am going Public not Private and have just lost my Sick Allowance from Centrelink and because of that Centrelink had to cancel mySick Allowance Health Care Card which helped reduce my Pharmacy payments. That is why I am wanting to know what I will be charged (more or less) tomorrow. Ann

Hi Ann
I didn't pay anything, my health fund must have covered the balance after medicare.
