We have been working with Scottish Government and NHS colleagues on trying to capture Pharmacy First Plus prescribing, advice and referrals data to better evidence the great work being done out in the network – at the moment, this cannot be separated out from standard Pharmacy First activity.

The Scottish Government released circular PCA(P)(2021)11 Community Pharmacy COVID-19 Test Kit Distribution Service clarifies the requirements for and the importance of reporting

Following the successful launch of the service, this circular will clarify the requirements for and the importance of reporting supply of kits to ensure proper remuneration for their distribution.

We have been advised that there are a number of LFD Test Kits which are being claimed under the wrong UCF service.
