Medicare Safety Net
If you need to see a doctor or have tests regularly you could benefit from the Medicare Safety Net. Once you reach a safety net threshold, visits to your doctor or having tests may end up costing you less.
Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) Safety Net
If you and your family need a lot of medicines in any year, you could benefit from the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) Safety Net. Once you reach a safety net threshold for medicines through the PBS in a calendar year, all PBS medicines are free for the rest of the year.
If you need a lot of medicines, it is a good idea to keep a record of how much you pay for your prescriptions.
