I didn't learn about this until today.

Asshole government making life harder and costing the health system more money in the long term.
It's such a weird way to subsidise tax cuts. I guess it wasn't free for long so they wanted to get it changed back before people thought if it as a new fee instead of an end to a short period of free prescriptions.
Seem to have left the co payment of Community Services cards for now.
- Yeah, I'm glad they left that one active.
  
  Me too.
