From April 2022, contractors will have to make all monthly FP34C submissions only through the Manage Your Service (MYS) portal, the Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee (PSNC) said in an update.
This will be for prescriptions dispensed from March 2022.
The last paper FP34C submission document will be posted out to contractors this month.
Contractors who have not yet registered for MYS, can do so by completing the form on the NHSBSA’s website.
While encouraging contractors to switch to the MYS, the negotiator stated that nearly 1,500 pharmacy contractors still depend on the paper FP34C submission document.
To avail the benefit from earlier advance payments, contractors must submit their FP34C through the MYS portal by the 5th of the month.
It noted more than 9,300 contractors received earlier advance payments on February 10 by submitting their declaration through MYS by the February 5.
