I, DIANA MACDONELL, Acting Assistant Secretary, Pharmaceutical Benefits Branch, Department of Health and Ageing and Delegate of the Minister for Health and Ageing, pursuant to paragraph 98C(1)(b) of the National Health Act 1953, hereby make the following Determination:
This Determination commences on 1 February 2006.
2. Determination No. PB 31 of 2005 under paragraph 98C(1)(b) of the National Health Act 1953, made on 23 November 2005 with effect from 1 December 2005, is repealed.
3. In this Determination:
“Act” means the National Health Act 1953;
“approved price to pharmacists” has the same meaning as in subsection 98B(3) of the Act;
“Commonwealth price” has the same meaning as in subsection 84(1) of the Act;
“extemporaneously-prepared pharmaceutical benefit” means a pharmaceutical benefit other than a ready-prepared pharmaceutical benefit;
“prescription” includes a prescription written on an authority prescription pursuant to regulation 13 of the Regulations, subparagraph 14(d) of the declaration made under subsection 85(2) of the Act or subparagraph 11(d) of the determinations made under sections 85, 85A and 88 of the Act, a repeat authorisation or a deferred supply authorisation;
“ready-prepared pharmaceutical benefit” means a drug or medicinal preparation in respect of which there is in force a determination under subsection 85(6) of the Act;
“Regulations” means the National Health (Pharmaceutical Benefits) Regulations 1960 made under the Act;
“standard formula preparation” means an extemporaneously-prepared pharmaceutical benefit that is listed in Schedule 5 to this Determination.
4. For the purpose of the determination made under subsection 98B(1) of the Act:
(a) pharmaceutical benefits that involve the admixture of ready-prepared ingredients are set out in Schedule 1 to this Determination;
(b) drugs that are used in the preparation of extemporaneously-prepared pharmaceutical benefits and that are unstable or packed sterile and unused quantities of which are unsuitable for future use are set out in Schedule 2 to this Determination;

(d) pharmaceutical benefits the complete pack of which shall be supplied regardless of any lesser quantity ordered are set out in Schedule 4 to this Determination.
5. Where a prescription identifies the ready-prepared pharmaceutical benefit to be supplied by reference to a particular brand, the amount payable shall be based on the approved price to pharmacists for that brand.
6. Where a prescription does not identify the ready-prepared pharmaceutical benefit to be supplied by reference to a particular brand, the amount payable shall be based on the approved price to pharmacists of the brand of that benefit, being a brand which is available from a wholesale source in the capital city of the State in which the benefit is supplied, for which the Commonwealth price for the supply of the benefit is lowest.
7. Where a prescription calls for a quantity of one of the pharmaceutical benefits listed in Schedule 4 to this Determination that is less than the quantity contained in the size of unit included in the particulars specified in the column headed ‘Form’ in that Schedule in relation to that benefit, the complete pack shall be supplied.
8. A medicinal preparation that is a variation of a standard formula preparation, due to the addition or deletion of an ingredient or to variation of the dose, or that is a combination of standard formula preparations, shall be deemed not to be a standard formula preparation.
9. An election made pursuant to paragraph 38 of the determination made under subsection 98B(1) of the Act shall be made in writing to the Chief Executive Officer of Medicare Australia and shall remain in force for a period of not less than 3 months from and including the date of election, but may be revoked in writing at any time after the expiration of that period; and while the election remains in force, the amount payable to the approved pharmacist or approved medical practitioner, in respect of the supply of an extemporaneously-prepared pharmaceutical benefit that is not a standard formula preparation, shall be the amount calculated in accordance with paragraph 21 of the determination made under subsection 98B(1) of the Act.
