Since 12th February, the initiative to "Keep Pathology Bulk Billed" has been passionately inviting Australians from all walks of life to voice their concerns about the 25-year funding freeze on essential medical tests, such as blood tests. This movement, which has drawn the support of tens of thousands, urges the Federal Government to allocate increased funding for Pathology in the 2024-25 Federal Budget.

Currently, a remarkable 99.6% of pathology services are bulk billed, ensuring that patients aren’t burdened with out-of-pocket expenses. This is a vital service that the people of Glenwood, NSW, and the wider Australian community rely on heavily. In comparison to other health services, which regularly see increased or "indexed" funding, pathology services have been unfairly left behind.

The hardworking individuals within pathology are committed to maintaining this crucial aspect of our healthcare system, but they need reinforced financial support to secure its future. Without full and fair funding, providers may face insurmountable challenges, having to make difficult decisions that could limit patient access to necessary medical care and increase the costs associated with these services. Such a scenario would be detrimental not only to those directly involved but also to the broader community, where easy and affordable access to pathology tests is pivotal for long-term health and wellbeing.

It is essential to address this long-standing funding issue to ensure that pathology services remain accessible and affordable. Join the grassroots movement that’s urging the Federal Government to act promptly and thoughtfully. Advocate for the necessary budgetary changes that will safeguard the provision of bulk billed pathology services for all Australians, particularly those in Glenwood.

Please lend your voice to this crucial cause; sign the petition to help preserve the accessibility and affordability of pathology services today.
