[QUOTE="Johndotcom, post: 775427, member: 161469"] In Wales it is slightly different to England, as everyone that resides in Country does not pay any prescription charges. I have been on Insulin for fifty years next year and even in Wales use to have a Exemption Certificate. I don't know what happens now "legally" in England, when visiting and needing a Prescription, I have to tick have a exemption certificate, but don't actually hold one any more as told by Hospital and GP not required, and by the Pharmacy in England told to just tick box as exempt when I asked them. Holiday makers in Wales still have to pay for prescriptions, unless they hold the said certificate or a residential Permanent home in Wales not a Holiday Home or Caravan. Not sure how the Law is now applied with three Counties in UK having different system, but for people requiring a life saving drug that is on list as not requiring to pay for should be sorted out or automated.
