More Welsh MURs allowed

Pharmacists in Wales can now be paid for up to 400 medicines use reviews a year, following amendment of the Directions for Advanced Pharmaceutical Services in Wales.

Pharmacies that made arrangements to provide advanced services before 1 October 2006 are eligible for the maximum payment in the financial year 2006–07.

The fee for MURs and prescription-linked interventions has also been formally increased from £23 to £25.
