Manitoba Pharmacy Jurisprudence Practice Exam

How is the deductible for the Provincial pharmacare program of Manitoba determined?

1. Fixed rate for all

2. 1-1.5% of income

3. Based on age

4. Based on the number of medications

The correct answer is: 1-1.5% of income

The correct answer is B because the deductible for the Provincial Pharmacare Program in Manitoba is based on the individual's income, generally ranging from 1-1.5%. Option A is incorrect because it implies everyone has the same fixed rate, which is not the case in Manitoba. Option C is incorrect because although age can play a factor in determining deductible rates in some provinces, it is not the case for Manitoba. Option D is incorrect because the deductible is not based on the number of medications an individual takes, but rather their income level.
