Description

The “Not dispensed service” aims to improve prescribing by informing GP practices about unwanted patient medicines that have been included on FP10. Relevant information will be fed back to GP practices providing information on these items and the reasons why an item had been included that was not required at the point of prescription handover.

The service also aims to educate patients with regard to medicines ordering, reduce waste and thereby generate efficiency savings for the NHS.
