PRESCRIPTION CHARGES AND PRE-PAYMENT CERTIFICATES
People who have to pay for more than 3 prescription items in 3 months, or 14 items in 12 months, could save money by buying a PPC. The charge for a single prescription item is £7.40, whereas a 3-month PPC will cost you £27.85 and a 12-month PPC £102.50. The most convenient way to pay for your 12 month PPC is by Direct Debit meaning you can spread the yearly cost over 10 monthly instalments.
