HRT pre-payment certificate
To reduce prescription costs for women receiving Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), on 1 April the Government is launching the HRT Pre-Payment Certificate (PPC).
To enable this, from 1 April prescribers will need to issue prescriptions for HRT items (which are listed in the Drug Tariff as being HRT licensed for the treatment of menopause) as single-item prescriptions (i.e., separate from other prescription items). Further guidance for prescribers on the HRT PPC will be published in due course.
Once the details are published we will setup a guide / webinar on how you can use a Quality Improvement approach to adapt to this change. Make sure you are a member of the Enhanced Primary Care Facebook Group to be alerted – https://www.facebook.com/groups/254788070091440/
