NIP budget decision
Following advocacy by the Pharmacy Guild, community pharmacies will be funded to administer vaccines through the National Immunisation Program (NIP) from 01 Jan next year.
Eligible patients who elect to receive NIP vaccines through their local community pharmacy will no longer face an administration fee under Federal Government plans.
The government's Rebuilding Medicare for the 21st Century strategy will see pharmacies paid $19 per shot for providing NIP vaccines to patients.
The Pharmacy Guild also provides full courses and a refresher course for pharmacists to acquire the skills and knowledge required to deliver vaccination services to the community.
