Make sure you have claimed for any deliveries by 5th April 2022

As part of removing the last of the COVID-19 domestic restrictions, the Government’s latest policy document (COVID-19 Response: Living with COVID-19) has confirmed that the Pandemic Delivery Service will be ending as there is no longer a legal requirement to self-isolate.

This means that from 24th February 2022, NHS Test and Trace will no longer issue any 8-digit NHS Test and Trace Account IDs (sometimes referred to as a CTAS number). This is the unique code needed by patients to access the Pandemic Delivery Service.

You can still make prescription deliveries to eligible patients who have a CTAS number issued on or before 23rd February 2022 (during the maximum 10-day window for self-isolation). If any patients fit this criteria you can continue to deliver medicines to them until 5th March 2022.

Claims for the Advanced service (for deliveries) must be submitted no later than 5th April 2022 to be paid for any deliveries made up to the 5th March 2022.
