The data covers prescriptions that are prescribed in Northern Ireland by GPs or Nurses (within a GP Practice), that are subsequently dispensed by a community pharmacist, dispensing doctor or appliance supplier and are finally submitted to the Business Services Organisation (BSO) for payment and have been paid. Full user guidance is available at: https://gpdatasets.hscni.net/ The Gross Cost is the basic price of a drug, i.e. the price listed in the National Drug Tariff, concessionary price list, or in standard price lists. Please note concessionary prices have to be approved by the Department of Health (DoH). Where DoH instructs BSO to apply reimbursement prices for a particular month after payment has already been made, these are paid as an adjustment and these prices are known as late concessionary prices. Prior to May 2024 late concessionary prices were not included in the data. From M Publisher: OpenDataNI (via data.gov.uk). Delivered as a cleaned, analysis-ready CSV table.
