Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Merron (HL7383), whether they plan to develop NHS App functionality to allow patients to nominate a distance selling pharmacy directly within the app.

There are no current plans to allow patients to directly nominate a distance selling pharmacy (DSP) from within the NHS App. Patients can continue to nominate a DSP through existing routes, which currently provide a more seamless patient experience.
