1. Limit on NHS Prescriptions- Have Your Say
Have your say on local plans to limit the range of items available on NHS prescription.
The NHS in parts of Nottinghamshire is changing what can be given on prescription as part of plans to save £20 million.
NHS Mansfield and Ashfield and Newark and Sherwood CCGs are planning to stop NHS prescriptions of gluten free foods; low priority medicines and over-the-counter remedies such as Paracetamol or hayfever preparations - with a few exceptions.
You are being asked for your views about the plans and to see if there are any exceptions that should be considered before they are implemented.
Engagement runs between
4 January and the 1 February 2017
Please come along to one of the drop in events to let us know your thoughts (no need to book)
