Frequently asked questions — Repeat Prescribing Optimisation in Forest Gate.
Do you take over the repeat process entirely?+
Yes — by default our pharmacy technicians own the day-to-day re-authorisation queue, with pharmacist sign-off for clinical changes. The GP only sees genuine clinical decisions.
Will switch programmes be agreed with us?+
Always. Every switch programme runs from a protocol signed off by the PCN's clinical lead and the relevant ICB Medicines Optimisation team. Nothing is changed unilaterally.
How quickly will we see prescribing cost impact?+
Most switch programmes show measurable cost impact in the first quarter and full-year impact by month nine. We report cost-saving against baseline every month.
