What is our Prescription Delivery Service & How Can you Sign Up?

Prescriptions

Want to get door-to-door delivery of your NHS medication? It’s likely that you depend on routine prescription medicine if you have a chronic condition or disability or care for someone who does. The procedure of collecting a prescription, taking it to your pharmacist, and paying on a routine basis can be cumbersome and time-consuming, despite the fact that NHS medications are typically affordable (and occasionally even free) to the individuals who need them most. Continue reading to find out more about how our repeat prescription delivery service in Clacton functions and how you might gain from it.

How our prescription delivery service in Clacton works

1. Sign Up

Setting up an account or registering with us is the first step in applying for repeat prescription delivery with G.M. Graham Pharmacies. Here, you’ll provide your patient information, such as the name of your doctor’s office and the repeat prescriptions you currently have. Additionally, you’ll give us information about your bank account so we can quickly collect payment for your prescriptions—but only if you pay for them and after delivery. Here, you can quickly and easily join up for this service online.

2. We will request your prescription

The next step is for our staff to get in touch with your GP office and request a repeat prescription. We can prepare to send your repeats when you need them once we have your patient information and prescription.

3. We will let you know when you need a top-up

We’ll give you notifications to take your medication as well as reminders to request repeat prescriptions each month to make sure you’re still getting the medication you need. By getting in touch with us using our contact information, you can update your information in case you no longer require one of your medications or if your prescription has changed. You have a choice in how you want to get the reminders.

4. We will deliver to you

Delivery of all medications is the final stage. Choose a UK address, such as your house, workplace, a caregiver’s home, or a neighbour’s home, and we will send your medication to you. You will get a notification when your medication is ready prior to delivery. When your prescription is sent out, we will deduct the cost from your account if you pay for your medications.

We advise you to order a repeat prescription at least a day or two before you require your medications.

Receiving your medication

You don’t need to sign for it; all you need is a UK address and a letterbox to receive your prescription. The secure, tamper-proof packaging used by G.M. Graham Pharmacies can fit through a letterbox of a standard size. If your prescription does not fit, which is improbable, our mailing agent will inform you and help you set up a collection or redelivery.

Who can use the NHS repeat prescription delivery service in Clacton?

Anyone who needs repeat prescriptions over the age of 18 can use this program. However, there are a few qualifying requirements you should be aware of before you sign up.

First, this service depends on the usage of electronic prescriptions. Therefore, in order for you to utilise it, your GP office must be able to supply electronic prescriptions.

The second is that we can only offer this service to persons who live (or are at least registered with a GP) in England because it depends on the usage of electronic prescriptions. Except if they are enrolled in a GP in England, in which case it may be possible. Residents of Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, and the Channel Islands are not permitted to use this service.
