I understand that, despite my anti-SNP stance. But free prescriptions cost. And that money comes out of the total NHS budget. I know not everyone can, but I can afford my family's prescriptions very easily, so why should I get them free?

That, and indy, are my two biggest concerns: free "X" means those who can afford to pay, don't. And the rest of society gets hit because there's not enough money for "Y".

Admin would cost more than charging would bring in. Universal free coverage leads to everyone having a stake. Market alternatives are less efficient. The policy seems more effective than others in the 4 UK NHSs.

Admin costs are the same. Pharmacy still bills someone for processing the script. I'm neutral on free prescriptions. It's a pittance anyway

I agree with Jonathan: cost neutral. So my take is: why not, you know, employ some pharmacists if it effectively costs nothing? Also: there are limits. I know 2 GPS. Both regularly have people need paracetamol. They ask for prescription rather than paying 20p in Tesco

Good grief. I know they are "free" at point of use, but prescriptions still cost.
