Can someone clear this up for me? My understanding is that the scheme can be used by anyone who does not pay for prescriptions i.e. in Scotland that's everyone. Is that not the case? I've just been to collect some creams and asked about the MAS - the ailment is covered so I didn't think there was any issue. When I collected the items the pharmacy then made an issue over the fact this only applies to people in receipt of certain benefits. I didn't really understand that as I'd been told yes to registering the scheme but then questioned over the exemption?
