I believe medical aid schemes are very unfair to community pharmacists. some of the medical aid schemes since 2004 have been paying the rate of 26% capped at R26 and have not adjusted their rates. medical aid schemes are not paying any professional services rates to pharmacists for services rendered and the SAPC seems to be OK with that even after the matter was raised in the last conference of the SAPC. very little effort is made by SAPC to compel medical aid schemes to pay pharmacist a professional fee for services rendered to their members.
