THE Health Department has launched new education resources for Highly Specialised Drugs (HSD), detailing the requirements for prescribing, dispensing and claiming Section 100 items.
Pharmacists are advised to ensure if their type of pharmacy is allowed to dispense the various types of HSD prescriptions, based on the authority approval, and to act on any warning or rejection messages from dispensing software.
The update also details claiming and pricing procedures - see humanservices.gov.au.
