Several of our local pharmacies provides us with intermittent but valuable
help. We try to be co-operative too, though as a low prescribing practice I
doubt we are popular. If charges came into it I think we would just go
elsewhere for the help and another bit of the teamwork that has kept the
NHS going would have dissappeared.
PACT can return comprehensive financial data and even individual Px AFAIK.
So difference, yes, perhaps don't do the work, but justify charging - I
would still very much feel and hope not.
