Apparently RPA has been acommodating to certain patients who have accessed meds privately, but it seems to be predicated on their "triage-level of need", ie those a bit worse off clinically - I was told no you don't need to look at generics, just wait for the PBS scheduling (which will never be accessible for everyone across the board, imo)
But now I am in the very fortunate position of being able to obtain DAAs, maybe I should just go back and put them on the spot about it - they can only refuse to support me - in which case it will be up to me & my GP.
