Prescriptions

The idea

Currently, prescriptions issued in a hospital can only be dispensed in the pharmacy of that hospital….not in any local pharmacy. This causes endless duplication of work by GP practices and hassle for patients. 

Why is it important?

Allowing hospital issued prescriptions to be dispensed in normal pharmacies would be much more convenient for patients. It would save a significant amount of time for GP practices and avoid the need for the many complex prescribing protocols which exist solely to get around this problem.
