flag Australian government plans to cap some medicine costs at $25 to ease cost of living.

flag The Australian government plans to cap the cost of selected medicines at $25, the first such cap in over 20 years. flag This follows a previous reduction from $42.50 to $30 under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS). flag PBS medicines will remain capped at $7.70 for pensioners and credit card holders until 2030. flag The bill is expected to pass due to Labor's majority in the House of Representatives. flag This move aims to provide cost-of-living relief and ensure healthcare quality is not determined by financial capacity.
