Prescription Charge Refund

If you are paying prescription charges but think that you might want to claim a refund, ask the pharmacist for an NHS HCS(R) form when you pay the charge.

You can only get a receipt at the time you pay the charge. The receipt tells you what you need to do to claim a refund.

Claims must be made within three months of the date you paid the charge.
