Online sessions last approximately 60 minutes.
In-person open days take place at Bridge House, Newcastle and usually last about 90 minutes.
The online presentation covers the same information as the onsite visit and is live, so you can ask any questions you may have. Online sessions mirror a site visit where you will see prescriptions arriving onsite, discover how they are prepared, scanned and processed before being paid. It will also cover essential hints and tips on subjects such as batch submission, endorsing, fee claiming and switching. These sessions can be tailored to suit your needs.
