Pharmacy Home Delivery
An initiative helping pharmacies across Australia continue to serve the community during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Pharmacy Home Delivery has been extended
In light of the government’s recent updates to the COVID-19 Home Medicines Services rebate, we’re also extending our Pharmacy Home Delivery until 31 March 2021.
Are you in need of urgent medical supplies? Find out how to access this free service.
During these challenging times, it’s crucial that vulnerable Australians continue to get their important medication.
We’ve designed a service that allows pharmacies to make next-business day deliveries1 to at-risk customers, safely.
The Pharmacy Home Delivery service allows vulnerable members of the community to get free delivery on medication and other essential supplies (under 500g), once a month.
