Following the Federal Budget in March, there were decisions made for the future funding of NPS MedicineWise. As NPS MedicineWise is the publisher of Australian Prescriber, these changes have implications for the journal.
At present it is uncertain whether Australian Prescriber will continue to be funded. The new health minister has ordered a review of these budget decisions. Pending that review, we would be grateful if you would show your support for the continuation of the journal. This would preferably be through continued funding of NPS MedicineWise.
You can express your support by signing our open letter to the health minister by clicking on this link*.
As clinicians, we really hope the journal can continue to be a free resource for all health professionals, to support the quality use of medicines.
