Dr Chris Jackson: Medical Oncologist on the approach needed to funding cancer drugs
Manage episode 425429128 series 2098285
An excellent outcome from a terrible process.
That's Medical Oncologist Chris Jackson's summation of Pharmac's latest funding boost.
The Government's committing $604 million to cover funding for 54 new medicines, including 26 cancer treatments.
Jackson says we have to be careful about implementation because dumping 26 cancer medicines into the system at once could create a capacity demand issue.
He told Mike Hosking that a number of cancer services around the country are already stretched.
Jackson says if we don't fund the infrastructure for them like chemo units, nurses, and the like, we'll end up with more waiting lists.
