In case you missed this – Australians will now have to pay for pap smears, blood tests, urine tests and imaging services.
Yes, you read that right. Find out more now.
This decision comes from yet another major funding cut to Medicare, which again will see our healthcare system move backwards.
Every year, over 800 Australian women are diagnosed with cervical cancer, and around a third of those women are likely to die from the disease.
Free and accessible pathology tests have been a key component in the early detection of not only cancer, but STI's, UTI's and pregnancy. It is simply unacceptable that the Liberals would cut bulk-billing incentives for these services.
We're demanding that the Liberals take women's health and the the health of all Australians seriously. Click here right now if you're with us on this.
The fact is that creating financial barriers that discriminate against those who cannot afford these services hurt our healthcare system even more in the long run. This decision goes to show once again the short-sightedness of this government’s constant attacks on Medicare.
Please sign the petition now by clicking here. If we want to keep our essential health services, then it's clear we need to fight for them.
