PRESCRIBING

Prescribing savings in 2008 (12th May 2009)
In 2007, the National Audit Office (NAO) published Prescribing costs in primary care, which was accompanied by a table setting out potential savings that Primary Care Trust (PCT) could achieve. At the end of 2008 NAO commissioned Keele University's Department of Medicines Management to calculate the actual savings achieved. PCTs, in England, achieved total savings in 2008 of £394 million.
