A new prescription prepayment certificate is to offer appreciably cheaper hormone replacement therapy for menopausal women in England. The change could save an estimated 400,000 women a year up to £205 a year each.
Ms Harris, expressing frustration with the PPC delay, highlighted in an open letter to Minister for Women Maria Caulfield last March that women often struggled to get their GPs to do this because GPs were often unaware of the NICE guidance. As a result, many women had been forced to continue to pay prescription charges every month.
An annual certificate can be used across the range of HRT prescription items, including patches, tablets, and topical preparations, and there will be no limit on how many times the PPC can be used while valid.Ms Caufield, a former nurse, said: "Around three-quarters of women will experience menopause symptoms, with a quarter experiencing severe symptoms - which can seriously impact their quality of life.
