Pharmac's board has agreed to an action plan to improve the organisation's culture after inappropriate emails were sent about journalist Rachel Smalley.
Chief Executive Sarah Fitt has also publicly apologised — saying she deeply regrets her actions.
Patient Voice Aotearoa had called for the resignation ahead of the Board and Fitt ahead of today's meeting.
Chair Malcolm Mulholland told Jack Tame he thinks the outcome is pathetic.
“I think there’s only one option available now to change the culture of Pharmac — and that’s for the incoming National government to sack the board and Sarah Fitt.”
