Catastrophic Drug Coverage Could Be Further Improved

There's some optimism the Alward Government's catastrophic drug plan will be made better, perhaps when the new provincial budget is unveiled in March. 

That's the hope of Provincial NDP Leader Dominic Cardy, who tells CHSJ News this is a matter of good economics.

Cardy says he knows someone who has to remain on social assistance because her drugs cost as much as $7000 a month so she can't afford to return to work unless there's adequate coverage at her place of employment.
