Pharmacy First: Further changes to monthly targets
Monday 14th October 2024
Since the two previously agreed changes to the original thresholds, which were secured following CPE representations to the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and NHS England, CPE has continued to press for further changes to the thresholds for the rest of this year.
Ministers have now decided that they intend to amend the thresholds for the rest of the year, in light of the concerns that CPE has raised.
The changes were announced on 14 October by Ali Sparke, NHS England, speaking at the Pharmacy Show. The revised thresholds are set out in the table below. For further information visit the CPE website.
