Pharmacy Payments Board

    For all the pharmacists/technicians out there who share these seemingly ever-growing battles with the PCRS, specifically the 'Hardship Scheme'. (that name still makes me shudder).

    Payment has recently started coming from PCRS with listings in our monthly summary reports, after being processed by the local HSE office, as per what happened before.
    This year, however, there have been delays on payments for various reasons, 'holidays', 'I don't know what happened there' and 'human error' being bandied about quite a bit. They have eventually come through, but a couple of months after they were due.

    For the March payment, the listing didn't appear in the summary claim book at all. When we queried this, we were told that 'the printer sometimes doesn't print that, but you have been paid'. (:confused:)

    We've made the IPU aware of all of this and as far as I know, they're looking into it, so I was just wondering is anybody else going through similar, or are we just extremely unlucky?!
