Prescriptions: Care Leavers
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what guidance his Department has issued on how care leavers aged up to 25 should evidence their entitlement to free NHS prescriptions, dental treatment and eye care.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
The Department of Health is progressing work to operationalise the extension of free National Health Service prescriptions, dental treatment and eye care services for care leavers up to 25 years old. We will ensure that clear information is provided on the arrangements, including the process for validating care leaver status.
