TURNBULL’S MEDICARE FREEZE LIE

The Turnbull Government has no one to blame but themselves for their Medicare freeze.

The last time Medicare rebates were reindexed was in July 2014 – as Labor had Budgeted:

The Liberals introduced a four year freeze in December 2014 – which Malcolm Turnbull extended in last year’s Budget.

The freeze is of their own making and their failure to drop it is a continuing insult to patients and medical professionals.

No amount of lies, no amount of desperate distractions can hide the fact this government continues to cut billions from Medicare and patients continue to pay the price.
