Surrounding Pharmacists Comments

  • Once an application for a new PBS Approval has been lodged with the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing, the Australian Community Pharmacy Authority (ACPA) will seek comments from pharmacists who have pharmacies in the vicinity of the proposed premises.
You or a neighbouring pharmacy may receive a letter from the ACPA inviting you to comment on whether the proposed pharmacy would meet the requirements of a particular Pharmacy Location Rule.
It is not uncommon practice for the ACPA to not write to all local pharmacies, so it could be in your interest to discuss this with other pharmacy owners in the area to ensure they are informed and also have the opportunity to comment.

Contact us as soon as you receive such a letter and we’ll do the rest. We can submit the comments to the ACPA on behalf of just one pharmacist or a group of pharmacists if this is your preference.

Please be assured all discussions are in confidence.
