Some people here would say it's a very low copayment in New Zealand. It's a maximum of $5, depending on what the cost of the medicine is, and no family is asked to pay for more than 20 prescriptions every year. It's not as huge a barrier as one might anticipate. Frequently, for families or individuals who do need medicines, pharmacists are very generous in forgoing that copayment. I don't believe it's a huge barrier, no.
