"On Friday March 12, the Federal Government’s proposed Medicare Plus package, a revamp of the rejected Fairer Medicare package, was passed by the Senate, with key amendments following negotiations between the Government and the four Independent senators. The following is a summary of the changes, some background commentary and analysis, and a description of basic information which may be useful for people with HIV, as the changes come into effect."
