PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Prescriptions: Fees and Charges (15 April 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans he has to change the requirement that a disabled applicant must manually sign form FP92A.

Asked by:
Caroline Nokes (Conservative)

Answer

We have no plans to do so. When a disabled applicant is unable to complete or sign form FP92A, the correct procedure is for a general practitioner or other healthcare professional to complete the application on the patient’s behalf. This instruction is noted on form FP92A in the patient declaration section.
