The federal Liberal administration has articulated its intention to introduce a national pharmacare program. However, the particulars of this program are still unknown: what gets on the formulary? who decides? who pays? how much? and through what mechanism? This panel will discuss the administrative, legal, economic, and political challenges in implementing such a program across all provinces. It will also reflect on how particular implementation plans could affect Nova Scotians for better or for worse.
