Re: Did you know .....
in wales everyone gets prescriptions free regardless of if you are working or not etc yet in England we hear of how people are left to die because they are denied life saving drugs because their area medical board wont let them have drugs they need
Quote:
From April 1st 2007 the NHS prescription charge was abolished for people in Wales.
Who is entitled to free prescriptions?
All patients registered with a Welsh GP, who get their prescriptions from a Welsh pharmacist, will be entitled to free prescriptions.
Welsh patients who have an English GP and who get their prescriptions from a Welsh pharmacist will still be entitled to free prescriptions. They will need to present their prescription with an accompanying entitlement card.
Along with free prescriptions, charges for wigs and appliances will also be abolished. Patients who receive these services from an English NHS Trust should have their costs met by their Local Health Board.
