Repeat Prescriptions

Repeat prescriptions may normally be obtained without seeing the doctor. You should request these by bringing or sending the tear off slip from your last form, having ticked the items required. We also accept requests via facsimile 01564 829319 and email hollywood.adminteam@nhs.net

Please do not make telephone or verbal requests.

Please allow 48 hours (2 working days) notice for us to prepare your new prescription.

The nurse/doctor regularly reviews all patient on long-term medication and the review date is clearly marked on the tear off slip. If a review is due, please book an appointment when ordering your prescription, as we are unable to issue prescriptions where your regular review is still outstanding.

Prescriptions Charges and Exemptions

Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).

The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines. Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.

NHS charges

From 1 April 2009, the charges are:

Prescription (per item): £9.00
12-month prepayment certificate (PPC): £104.00
3-month PPC: £29.10

If you will have to pay for four or more prescription items in three months, or more than 14 items in 12 months, you may find it cheaper to buy a PPC. The charge for a single prescription item is £9.00, whereas a three month PPC will cost you £29.10 and a 12 month PPC £104.00.
