Details

This report details the investment in general practice and the reimbursement for drugs dispensed in general practices in Northern Ireland from 2016/17 to 2020/21. The report draws on information from the financial reporting system of the Health and Social Care Board and other published data on reimbursement and remuneration for dispensing activity.

Previously country level information from all 4 UK countries was published by NHS Digital. However, changes to contractual arrangements in each country mean the data are no longer comparable. As a result, it was decided that this UK-level report was no longer relevant or appropriate and the series has been discontinued. From 2020, NI produced and published its own report (NHS Digital provides a link to the NI Report on their website).
