WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY G.C.L. BAUDAINS OF ST. CLEMENT
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 26th FEBRUARY 2008
Question
Would the Minister advise members of the average cost of dispensing a prescription (excluding the cost of the medicines) to outpatients at the General Hospital?
Answer
The average cost of dispensing a prescription to outpatients at the General Hospital was £2.30 in the year 2007. This figure has been arrived at by dividing the total number of outpatient prescriptions (129,575) by the estimated employment costs of the relevant staff (£298,583).
