These Regulations amend the National Health Service (Charges for Drugs and Appliances) (Scotland) Regulations1989 (S.I. 1989/326) (“the principal Regulations”), which provide for the making and recovery of charges for drugs and appliances supplied by doctors and pharmacists providing pharmaceutical services, and by Health Boards and NHS trusts to out-patients.
Regulation 2(2) amends certain definitions in regulation 2 of the principal Regulations (interpretation).
Regulation 2(3) substitutes a new paragraph (1A) into regulation 2 of the principal Regulations. The effect of this is to provide for prescriptions issued by nurse prescribers employed under a pilot scheme to be subject to the same charges and benefit from the same exemptions from charges as those issued by doctors and other nurse prescribers.
