Protect Our Tests

Protect Our Tests

Pathology is a vital community medical service and is currently affordable, accessible and high quality.

Funding for pathology tests has not increased for almost 20 years. This means the Medicare rebate prices paid for your pathology tests is around the same as, or less than, in 2000!

Ahead of the 2019 federal election the Labor party has now committed to investing $200m in pathology to support bulk billing.

We want all politicians to match Labor’s pledge to increase funding for pathology tests to ensure access to high quality healthcare services is maintained for all Australians.

Email your politicians to let them know that quality healthcare matters to you.
