How certain in the right to charge a fee in these circumstances?
I agree we should be paid for it BUT we're giving it to NHS patients, using
NHS drugs, for their benefit while in the UK. Can't see anything that
allows us to charge a fee in this. It doesn't appear comparable to the
imms for foreign travel that the government won't fund. Am I missing
something?
