This issue should have been taken up many years ago as Section 22G provides for the maximum fee a pharmacist may charge, whilst the MSA provides for Medical Schemes to contract DSPs. However the MSA provide for contracting DSPs in an era before Medicine Price Regulations came into effect. This shiuld have been considered as the fuspensing fee is the legislated health professional fee.
