Government impact assessment of pharmacy contract warned it could cause closures
Exclusive: An impact assessment of the ‘Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework for 2019/20 to 2023/24’ described how the five-year deal would “create winners and losers across pharmacy contractors”.
The government was warned that some pharmacies could “become financially unviable and close” because of cost pressures related to launching new services under the five-year community pharmacy contract, a freedom of information request from The Pharmaceutical Journal has revealed.
An impact assessment for the ‘Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework for 2019/20 to 2023/24’ (CPCF) was dated 11 July 2019 — shortly before publication of the full framework — and describes how the deal would “create winners and losers across pharmacy contractors”.
