SPECIALIST SERVICES
Refunds May Be Claimed
(Special) WELLINGTON, October 21. Whether Clause 12 of the Finance Bill (No. 2) recently passed by the House of Representatives authorizing part refunds of specialists’ fees, applied to persons on the lists of doctors operating the capitation scheme who may have occasion to visit specialists was a question asked of the Minister of Health, the Hon. A. H. Nordmeyer, by Mi W. M. C. Denham (Lab., Invercargill) in the House of Representatives this afternoon. Mr Nordmeyer replied that the answer was: “Yes.” The section would enable all persons, including those on doctors’ capitation lists or on the lists of friendly societies obtaining refunds of medical contributions or those living in special areas set up under the medical benefits scheme to obtain refunds for specialists’ services in the same manner as those who did not come under those categories. In other words, all people normally resident in New Zealand might now claim a refund in respect of specialist services.
