Important Londonwide CEO message number 3 - 24 June 2009

We continue to work to persuade authorities to simplify the processes placing demands on your practices. We continue to struggle with the issue of swabbing. BUT:

As of today, NHS London has agreed the following regarding prescribing of Anti-Virals:

This can include using an FP10 that has been clearly annotated ‘convenient stationary’ or using the tear off slip that accompanies each FP10, ensuring this does not include all other repeat medication information.

Michelle's message: This is as good as it will get, please adopt it. We will be contacting PCTs to ensure they switch from local and variable forms to this FP10 approach.
