But there is an element of this Pharmac review that I think needs to see the light of day, and in this report, it said that, "The Ministry of Health is responsible for developing health-related policy for the Government. In our view, the ministry needs to develop a replacement medicine strategy to guide the sector, including Pharmac, in its decision making." It goes on to say, "We consider the absence of an up-to-date principles-based medicines strategy to be a crucial omission and one that will disrupt Pharmac's integration into the new health system. With health sector reforms not far away, now is an ideal time to update the strategy to define medicines priorities. We consider the ministry should make updating the medicines strategy a priority."
