Health benefits

13 April 2011

The National Health Service (NHS) generally provides health care free of charge but in some cases imposes fixed charges for items and services such as prescriptions, dental treatment, sight tests or glasses.

Factsheet F14 - prescription charges/health benefits is a basic introduction to the prescription charges/health benefits scheme, explaining the help you can get with charges. You can find out more detailed information in Disability Rights UK's Disability Rights Handbook, available to buy at www.radar-shop.org.uk/.

All our publications are available at www.disabilityalliance.org/shop.htm. You can also place an order by contacting Disability Rights UK on 020 7247 8776 (this is not an advice line) or by fax on 020 7247 8765. All our factsheets are available at www.disabilityalliance.org/fact.htm.
