star this property answer text <p>The costs of branded medicines are controlled by the Pharmaceutical Price Regulation Scheme and the statutory scheme for branded medicines. Liothyronine is an unbranded generic medicine. For unbranded generic medicines, the Department encourages competition between suppliers to keep prices down. In primary care, community pharmacies are incentivised to source products at the lowest possible cost and in secondary care, competitive tenders ensure value-for-money to the National Health Service.</p><p> </p><p>Liothyronine is currently the subject of an investigation by the Competition and Markets Authority, which has provisionally found that the single supplier of the product abused its dominant position to overcharge the NHS by millions for liothyronine tablets. A provisional decision does not necessarily lead to an infringement decision. Where companies have breached competition law, the Department will seek damages and invest that money back into the NHS.</p><p> </p><p>Medicines legislation requires that only medicines licensed for use in the United Kingdom can be marketed in the UK.</p>

We are aware of locally commissioned schemes addressing hypertension. The Pharmacy Integration Fund is also supporting the roll out of clinical pharmacists in general practice and in care homes with additional training to award independent prescriber status.</p> more like this

This investment will improve patient care and access, and facilitate new ways of providing primary care.</p><p> </p><p>Commissioners of primary medical care services monitor practice catchment areas to ensure that all areas of the country have primary medical care cover, and through an annual review of every primary medical care contract are aware of local primary medical care capacity and how this meets demand.</p><p> </p><p>Practices are funded on a weighted population basis and therefore, where populations grow gradually, practices receive additional investment to take on new patients which allows them to grow to maintain services for patients. There has been a national trend in practices becoming larger, employing more staff and operating with a more diverse workforce in order to meet rising demand.</p><p> </p><p>Brighton and Hove Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is investing in general practice to improve patients’ access to GP services and increase the range of services to help support patients manage their conditions. Measures include financial and educational support to help GPs run their surgeries more effectively and efficiently.</p><p> </p><p>A key part of local plans to improve health and social care across the city is to make general practice more sustainable, more resilient and ensure it works efficiently and effectively for many years ahead. This will include integrating some services with other clinical specialists, for example pharmacists better supporting GPs, and helping GPs work more collaboratively. There are also a number of specific schemes in place as part of the CCG’s workforce strategy including the GP retention package and overseas recruitment.</p>

star this property answer text <p>Minor ailment services are currently commissioned locally by the National Health Service according to need. However a national minor illness scheme is in development, building on a pilot digital minor illness referral service (DMIRS) that commenced last year in the North East. This scheme provides direct referrals from NHS 111 to community pharmacy. Three further DMIRS pilots, supported by the Pharmacy Integration Fund, are due to be launched by early autumn 2018, in Devon, London (in a phased approach), and East Midlands. The areas will be adopting the same model used in the North East with some minor adaptations dependent on the local NHS 111 case mix. An evaluation will inform any next steps for the project.</p> more like this
