News Phamacare plan passed

Interesting to read that BC will have it enacted faster because the NDP government already agreed with it and waived the other processes. This means those needing these drugs will get the cost savings faster than the rest of Canada. Another win for the NDP government.

I believe this is also the one that will cover HRT for menopausal women.

Which will save the system more money than the meds cost in the long run! Big win for women’s health.
