Consultation on aligning the upper age for NHS prescription exemptions with State Pension age The consultation seeks views from the public, healthcare organisations and staff on options for implementing a change in the age at which people in England become eligible for free prescriptions from the current age of 60, to 66 years of age.
One option includes introducing a grace period meaning people aged 60 to 65 at the point of any change can continue to receive free prescriptions. Department of Health and Social Care
