#32016-01-11 19:55Because a Ballet instructor. Chiropractor. Plumber. Audiometrist. Physiotherapist. Dietician ....... Earn more per hour than a pharmacist. Who carries the most responsibility???? |

#52016-01-11 20:49Medical Aids exercise the freedom to practice unfair rates in a sector that is already regulated to death. |
Guest |
#62016-01-12 04:34Generic substitution law should be changed as at the moment it is mandatory for Pharmacists to tell the patients about generics and the penalties are heavy . Pharmacists of course should be encouraged to tell the patient about the generics . Medical aid schemes should pay the Pharmacies at the maximum regulated prices to avoid co payments. The DSP arrangements should totally be abolished as it limits the patients their right to choose their preferred pharmacy, so the medical scheme Act must be amended so as to effect that. Other services for which a pharmacist may charge a fee like cholesterol testing , compounding , authorization of chronic medication , provision of emergency contraception must be paid by medical aids . So I fully support the petition |

#82016-01-12 13:45Pharmacists have been exploited for far too long. Let's all unite & fight the injustices in our Profession. |

#102016-01-12 15:47I feel that it is absolutely unfair for insurers to dictate statutory professional duties and discretion of pharmacists and other health professionals. |
Guest |
#112016-01-12 15:48I firmly believe that pharmacists are being exploited and made to seem like they are the bad guys. The public needs to be made aware of this. It is high time SAPC stands by us and represents us. |
Guest |
#122016-01-12 17:41It is by time that pharmacists stand together and that the Pharmacy Council gives it its full support |
Guest |
#132016-01-12 17:47The SAPC has always been a puppet of the the medical schemes, dancing to there music under the name of "affordable healthcare"With the approvel of the SAPC they killed the privately owned pharmacy . The drug companies, smiled, the dispensing doctors smiled and medical aids smiled when the SAPC sighned the death warrant of every privately owned pharmacy |
Guest |
#142016-01-12 18:59As an owner of an independent pharmacy it hasn't been easy to make ends meet. |
Guest |
#162016-01-12 19:12Pharmacists are the backbone of the community. If the SAPC cannot stand up for their livelihood, we as Fellow Pharmacist will stand together with them. |
Guest |
#172016-01-12 19:40As a pharmacist I agree that we are being exploited by medical aids that doesn't pay the suggested dispensing fee.We are just good enough to do long hours of work and sorting out medical aid queries for no remuneration. It doesn't make sense. ... |
Guest |
#182016-01-12 19:57It's just about time that independent pharmacies unites for a common cause |
Guest |
#192016-01-12 20:03Because we have impotent Pharmacists organizations to which we pay monthly and annual fees, producing no tangible results for the profession. Pharmacists need change their defeatist attitude and rise up and challenge the status quo. |

#202016-01-13 04:43I owned a small community pharmacy for 20 years, which was an integral part of our small residential area. I was forced to close due to bankruptcy 18 months after joining the Discovery Health Network contract. Discovery illegally refuses to pay the lawful price for medicines. Other medical schemes have since jumped on the bandwagon, so to speak, whilst I have lost everything |
Guest |
#212016-01-13 04:55Oh how I laughed and laughed. The SAPC can't even administrate its own house how are they going to achieve anything when they can't even manage to answer a phone. |
Guest |
#222016-01-13 05:09I was forced to close my Pharmacy in 2004 due to introduction of the introduction of the new tariff system and we need to stand together to see the survival of community pharmacy |
Guest |
#252016-01-13 06:04Professional, health care services, such as Pharmacists practicing independently, dedicated, with long hard hours, should be afforded the respect to earn a decent living and not be strangled, with ever diminishing reimbursements offered and directed by larger health insurance companies. |
