David Janetzki MP, NLP Member for Toowoomba South & Shadow Treasurer, about the Palaszczuk Government’s new Patients’ Tax, which he says will add further pressure to the Health Crisis and Queenslanders struggling with the cost of living.

The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners has labelled the change an “illogical tax grab” and warned that general practices will have no option “but to pass on the costs to patients”.   

Mr Janetzki says the new tax will have serious consequences for Queenslanders across the state.

“This new stealth tax will drive up patient fees and emergency department presentations and drive down bulk-billing,” Mr Janetzki said.
