THIS CONTENT HAS NOW EXPIRED
The 2023/24 Community Pharmacy Assurance Framework (CPAF) screening questionnaire is now available for completion until midnight on Sunday 30th July 2023.
The short screening questionnaire consists of 10 questions. Pharmacy owners who use the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) Manage Your Service (MYS) portal will be required to complete the questionnaire on the portal. Those who are not yet signed up to MYS will be able to complete the questionnaire online.
The questions will be published on the NHSBSA website shortly.
Once the screening questionnaires have been completed, NHS England will then select a small number of pharmacies for a monitoring visit and/or to complete the full CPAF questionnaire.
Community Pharmacy England has published a short Briefing on the screening process. Read the briefing
As the questions have not changed since 2022/23 the previous briefing is still relevant.
Community pharmacies should have received information and instructions on how to complete the screening questionnaire either via email from the NHSBSA or from their own Head Office. Pharmacy owners are advised to contact NHSBSA by emailing pharmacysupport@nhsbsa.nhs.uk if they have not received details of the questionnaire by he end of today, or if they have any problems or queries completing the questionnaire.
