Letter: Waive Dispensing Fees During Pandemic

April 28, 2020

VDLC President Stephen von Sychowski sent a letter on April 28 to Mr. Glen Doucet, Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Pharmacists Association. 

The letter is in support of the Canadian Labour Congress call for extra prescription dispensing fees to be waived during the pandemic in order to help ensure that everyone will have access to the medications they need.
