The AMA says it will "prove" to the Federal Government that it should scrap the PBS script authority line, following a surge in doctor complaints.
Australian Doctor reported last month that GPs had been experiencing delays of more than 10 minutes waiting for their calls to be answered.
That report prompted a stream of complaints from doctors, calling for the number of drugs available through the streamlined authority system to be increased.
