Minister signs regulations to help with prescriptions during COVID-19
The Minister for Health, Simon Harris, has made changes to ensure that patients will no longer have to bring paper scripts to pharmacists to get prescriptions or repeat prescriptions. Instead - these prescriptions will be emailed to the pharmacy from the prescribing doctor via the HSE's Healthmail system.
As well as this, prescription lengths have been increased - so people with a prescription for 6 months will have the validity period extended to 9 months.
