Prepayment certificates
People who have to pay NHS prescription charges and need them regularly or need a lot of prescription items could save money with a Prescription Prepayment Certificate. PPC holders pay no further charge at the point of dispensing and there is no limit to the number of items the holder may obtain via the certificate.
PPCs can be ordered from the NHS Business Services Authority, or by phoning 0845 850 0030
