Legislation may
TORONTO - New legislation governing
pharmacists in Ontario will mean the dos-
ing of many pharmacies and significant lay-
offs in others, the Ontario Pharmacists
Association (OPA) warned in a brief to the
Social Development Committee of the pro-
vincial legislature.
The legislation, set out in bills 54 and 55
which are now before the House, also will
result in the curtailment of the level of ser-
vice by pharmacists that the public
"deserve and have come to expect," the.
association added.

once closure of pharmacies, says ()PA
and those on social assistance have their
prescription drugs paid for by the govern-
ment, will lead to the government paying
higher costs for drugs than will private
citizens who pay for their own prescriptions,
the OPA said.
"The cost of the drug cornponenet and the
professional fee should be the same in' all
markets" and a double -pricing system such
as that proposed by the government will be
a "backward step," the OPA added in its
brief.
The OPA said that price spreads of this
type can be avoided by adopting a drug pric-
ing system based on' the "best available

Process to go towards new ball park
price" from drug manufacturers instead of
a system of "actual acquisition cost" as in-
tended by the government.
A system for best available price was
recommended to the Ontario government by
Prof. John Gordon of Queen's University,
and should be adopted in place of the pre-
sent legislation, the OPA said.
"The concept of best available price
which involves realistic acquisition cost
( best volume price) plus a negotiated pur-
chasing advantage to encourage efficient
purchasing, represents the pricing method
most likely to produce uniform 'and lower
drug costs in Ontario," the OPA declared.
The OPA also termed it "essential" that
drug manufacturers be required to make
their drug products available in like quan-
tities .to all purchasers throughout the pro-
vince at the same price.
Unless this is done pharmacies "will con-
tinue to be at the mercy of the marketing
policies of the drug manufacturers, which
currently result in huge disparities in the ac-
quisition costs of many drugs", the OPA ad-
ded,
Failure of the goverment to require
manufacturers to be bound by such condi-
tions "is the most serious flaw in the plan",
the OPA said.

The OPA said it is pleased that important
amendments have been made to the propos-
ed legislation, but that problems remain.
The OPA added that because the gove
ment has refused to allow pharmacies an
crease in their dispensing fee for prescrip-
tions filled under the drug benefit plan, they
have had to increase their usual profes-
sional fees for private prescriptions.
The OPA pledged pharmacists not to "opt
out" 'frorlrr any government -run drug plan,
providing the government will accept bin-
ding arbitration for the setting of future
dispensing fees.
In presenting the OPA brief, past presi-'
dent David Hannay noted that the Ontario
Coalition of Senior Citizens associations, in
a presentation to the committee„ endorsed -
binding arbitration for pharmacists' fees.
Under the proposed legislation, the govern-
ment could set dispensing fees without con-
sultation with pharmacists.
