The Federal Government has again extended its subsidy for SMS prescriptions, meaning GPs won’t have to bear the full cost themselves until at least the middle of 2022. 

It comes after the number of e-scripts issued in Australia passed 15 million this month, with the bulk sent to patients’ mobile phones via SMS.
