Pharmacy Processing and Payments – Guidance to Practitioners

As we continue working to urgently restore accurate and timely payments, we have produced a series of short videos to support Pharmacy claiming and processing in the new Data Capture Validation & Pricing (nDCVP) system in Scotland. By working together, NSS and Pharmacy staff can establish a more efficient and accurate payment process going forward. We appreciate and value your support. These videos contain vital guidance and information for practitioners encouraging best practice:

• Electronic claiming process: overview
• What can you do to support electronic claiming
• Using the Pharmacy Endorsing Guide effectively
• Price endorsements for special and extemporaneous items
• Including quantities for the amounts dispensed on HBP and GP10N forms
• Correctly endorsing out-of-pocket expenses for Scottish Drug Tarriff items
• Best practice for submitting paper prescriptions
