You don't claim the PBS, it's a list of medications which are subsidised by the government and patients pay a max of almost $39 for each medication each time it is filled. If the medication you require is NOT on the PBS schedule then the patient pays the full cost of the medication which can be prohibitive. You may be able to get a small refund if you have private health but there is usually an exemption period for pre existing conditions.
