New Zealanders have had subsidised access to pharmaceuticals since the 1930s. Since 1993, the Pharmaceutical Management Agency (PHARMAC) has managed the list of medicines that are subsidised by the Government. Successive governments have been concerned to make a comprehensive range of medicines as affordable as possible for patients. PHARMAC achieves this by managing the New Zealand Pharmaceutical Schedule that lists all subsidised medicines, along with any restrictions on eligibility for subsidy.
