The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much funding has NHS England allocated to the EMIS Web Dispensing Module in 2026/27.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock

NHS England spends approximately £750,000 annually funding the EMIS Web dispensing module. NHS England will work with relevant bodies, including the Department, to develop a longer-term approach regarding the way dispensing is funded, in advance of the expiry of the 12-month extension NHS England has put in place.
