👉Everyone aged 60 or over is automatically exempt from prescription charges.

That means once you turn 60, you can get NHS prescriptions for free — you don’t need a prepayment certificate (PPC) or to pay the standard per-item charge.

Because you’re exempt by age, a PPC (or the special HRT-only PPC) typically isn’t necessary for someone over 60 — unless perhaps you want to cover someone under 60 on the same prescription or for some other reason.

📎Helpful Information: What are PPC and HRT PPC?

The standard PPC covers all your NHS prescriptions (any medicine/appliance, subject to NHS charge rules) for a fixed price over a given period.

There are 2 main types:
3-month PPC (cost: £32.05)
12-month PPC (cost: £114.50).

This can cover any sort of NHS prescription medication — not just HRT.

The HRT PPC is a special variant introduced to make HRT prescriptions cheaper/payment easier.

It costs £19.80 per 12 months (as of current rates) for the standard HRT-PPC.

It covers an unlimited number of eligible HRT medicines over 12 months.

We are taking on new patients

Hi everyone, during the last two years there has been a lot of development at the practice. In April 2018 St Anne’s Surgery and Beltinge & Reculver Surgery merged with William Street and Hersden Surgery to become the Heron Medical Practice.

The Practice has changed beyond recognition across the clinical teams and non-clinical teams. We have employed lots of different allied health professionals including advanced nurse practitioners who can prescribe and refer like a GP, we have paramedics who can visit you at home, we have pharmacists who can ensure that you are on the most effective medication regimes for you.

We have developed a brand new nursing team who each have their own specialities as well as all of them doing the general nursing duties; these specialities include Diabetes care, respiratory care, mental health and dementia care, warfarin management and women’s health with lots more service in development.

We have a clinical team that meets weekly to discuss patients that require a bit more specialist care than normal with a multidisciplinary team of GPs, Nurses, Social Care and Voluntary Services.
