@TAYkeYourDrugs I think the acknowledgement and incorporation of a pharmacist's true capabilities in all healthcare settings (virtual and in person) is long overdue!! This is awesome to see #PHARM4420

[IanC. @IanColb]

With pharmacists expanding scope of practice, definitely a window of opportunity to be even further incorporated into advancements in healthcare. Medicuro will hopefully put this on display! #PHARM4420

Survey conducted by Green Shield Canada suggests there is “rapidly increasing interest” in virtual healthcare services amid #COVID19 @GSC_1957 #insurancenews https://t.co/2HdjDbbmhb

Adding pharmacists to the Medicuro virtual clinic team is a step in the right direction! Pharmacists can assess and prescribe for 33 minor ailments and conditions. They can help cut down wait times for virtual services and relieve the pressure placed on physicians. #PHARM4420

So many people lack access to timely and unfragmented healthcare with the shortage of GP's in NL currently. Medicuro is a step in the right direction and it only makes sense to involve pharmacists in this important advancement to virtual care. #PHARM4420

@TAYkeYourDrugs I agree. Starting with some of the most pressing issues for Canadians is definitely a great way to kick this off. Lets keep it going! #PHARM4420

It’s a historic day for Canada!

We’ve tabled pharmacare legislation to help Canadians get the medication they need.

And we are starting with contraception and diabetes medication.

[Mark Holland @markhollandCA]

Our pharmacare legislation will make contraception and diabetes medication accessible for everyone and will help millions of Canadians—improving equity, affordability, and health outcomes across the country.

I think the news regarding pharmacare is an important first step in the right direction for those without access to coverage who rely on these drugs to live their day to day lives.

Not perfect, but hopefully sets the stage for more accessible healthcare to come.
