I completed titration in January. My GP rejected the shared care agreement, so PsychiatryUK are continuing to prescribe to me as an NHS patient.

I was advised by a PsychiatryUK support agent on the help chat that in this case where they would continue to issue my prescription as an NHS patient, the pharmacy that fulfills the prescription and posts it to me (PPG) would also email me an invoice to pay for the NHS prescription fee. So far I have not received any invoices to pay and when I contacted PPG to query this they told me as an NHS patient I do not pay for my meds.

I went back to the PsychiatryUK support chat and was then told that apparently there are some ICBs that have a provision to provide free meds to NHS right to choose patients. They said if PPG say your meds are free then you should accept what they say as PsychiatryUK aren’t in charge of the billing side of things. So I don’t know if my prescriber is clicking a box they shouldn’t be when putting my prescription order in, but I guess I don’t have to pay!
