Pandemic Delivery Service continues for self-isolating patients
Written by admin on Friday 2nd July 2021
Whilst the Pandemic Delivery Service for clinically extremely vulnerable (CEV) patients finished on 31st March 2021, the service still remains active for people notified of the need to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace
Following a decision by the Department of Health and Social Care, NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSE&I) have confirmed a further extension of the period of commissioning of the Pandemic Delivery Service for people who have been notified of the need to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace.
This service will now be commissioned until 23:59 on 30th September 2021.
Details can be read in the following PSNC news article:
Please also note:
NHSE&I has informed PSNC that some pharmacy contractors are continuing to make claims on the NHSBSA’s Manage Your Service (MYS) portal for deliveries to CEV patients.
These may be erroneous claims for deliveries to self-isolating people where the claim has been entered into the wrong field in the MYS Pandemic Delivery Service claim form. From July 2021 onwards, any claims entered in the CEV field will not be processed, so it is important that contractors ensure they enter claims for delivery to self-isolating people in the correct field within MYS.
More information about the service can be read on the following website pages:
