ESA and Prescription charges

  • Thank you everyone for your help

    I have spoken to my CPN She is going to speak to the people chasing me for the charges.

    She has assured me that she can organise things for me but I will most probably have to pay for the prescriptions.

    Rather than mess around I have just organised a pre-payment certificate. For the £10.40 per month fee I can stop worrying.

    Again, thanks

    You should look into the other options suggested as the pre pay certificate is only for prescriptions, not dentists or opticians.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Ring and ask if you can apply for nhs dental treatment on low income grounds. If your only income is from benefits and you don’t have any savings you may yet quilify.

    I've always just applied for an HC2 in these circumstances. It avoids any doubt.
