answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/07/2019 answer text <p>Extensive arrangements are already in place to help people access National Health Service prescriptions. These include a broad range of NHS prescription charge exemptions, for which someone with cystic fibrosis may qualify. Together these exemptions currently mean around 89% of NHS prescription items are dispensed in the community free of charge.</p><p>To support those with the greatest need who do not qualify for an exemption, the cost of the prescription pre-payment certificates has been frozen for another year. A holder of a 12-month certificate can get all the prescriptions they need for just £2 per week.</p> answering member printed Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford question first answered 02/07/2019 15:11:59 answering member 4019 label Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford
