I haven't practised in over 25 years, so I'm really not the person to ask. I'm a registered nurse, not a nurse practitioner. What we have done over the years is that we've brought practising nurses—and physicians have come also—to talk to parliamentarians on the lack of access to drugs.
Most of the time, we leave the dollars and cents to the economists to explain the cost impacts. What we're saying is that there's a human impact to people having to go to see a physician or a nurse practitioner and beg for a sample drug or for the rare disease that Durhane was talking about.... We should not be in a situation where we beg to get care in this country, and access to what your doctor or nurse practitioner prescribes should be included.
