Pharmacy First Supply

This service is NOW LIVE. Please note further information may be sent out directly from the ICB to your NHS Shared Mailbox regarding any updates. Following many months of background work and multiple business case revisions, CPLSC would like to express a huge thank you to the ICB commissioners, who have supported this fantastic initiative for our Community Pharmacy Contractors.

This will undoubtedly have a huge positive impact on our local neighbourhoods and further enhance patients first line access to care through Community Pharmacy teams following Minor Illness referrals. It will also help reduce pressures and patient waiting times for our GP colleagues by maximising the use of Pharmacy First minor illness referrals via the EMIS Local Services Button.
