The Future of Pharmacy First – Maximising Patient Benefit

In a report to mark the first anniversary of the service, the CCA outlines how Pharmacy First could be expanded to free up 40 million general practice appointments every year. It also shows how Pharmacy First activity varies regionally; the proportion of Pharmacy First consultations taking places in deprived communities; and how Pharmacy First is providing urgent care to patients out of typical working hours.

Financial support for this report has been provided to the CCA as a grant by Pfizer Ltd.
