Consultation Paper on Bundling Arrangements for General Use Items on the Prostheses List

As part of the Prostheses List Reforms the Independent Health and Aged Care Pricing Authority (IHACPA) recently consulted in relation to appropriate pricing of ‘general use’ items due to be removed from the Prostheses List. RACS co-signed this submission which was co-badged with GSA, USANZ, and ANZSVS. The submission highlighted that reforms should not result in reduced access and choice of items defined as general use.
