I've read on various news sites today that the NHS is proposing to make cut back on what GPS prescribe. Pain killers , gluten free food , indigestion remedies and sun cream.
They also want NHS staff to ask for I suppose would be the Eu/world version of the E11 card or whatever it is. Some trusts already ask for proof of ID, passports and bills.
To me , an NHS front line staff worker I think it's a good idea, if it saves money and the money is then spent in the correct way not on managers and other useless ideas , believe me there are many!
Pain killers can be bought cheaply on the high street and to get gluten free food on prescription , do you actually ask for 2 loaves of bread and pizza based and biscuits each week?
My only issue is would this effect the low income and house bound? Interested in other opinions
