A report out Monday morning says bringing back fees for pharmacy prescriptions will reverse improved healthcare.
The survey found two-thirds of community pharmacies built patient numbers between July and October and pharmacists were able to help more with frontline care.
The Labour government scrapped the standard $5 co-pay fee for prescriptions in July.
But the incoming National Party leadership has said it will reintroduce prescription fees for adults, except those who hold a Community Services Card or a SuperGold card.
Rotorua-based pharmacist and spokesperson for the Prescription Access Initiative Charlotte Schimanski spoke to Corin Dann.
