PSNC: All FP34C submissions through MYS only

The Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee (PSNC) has urged pharmacy contractors to use Manage Your Service (MYS) portal only for all monthly FP34C submissions.

To secure access to earlier advance payments on 11 April 2022, the committee has advised pharmacy contractors to submit their claims for NHS pharmaceutical services delivered in March 2022 no later than 5 April 2022.


PSNC said: "The Manage Your Service (MYS) portal is now the ONLY route available to contractors for all monthly FP34C submissions. From March 2022, contractors will no longer receive the paper FP34C submission document through the post. However, the NHSBSA will continue to post out red separators for contractors to submit relevant forms each month."Approximately 1,500 pharmacy contractors still reliant on the paper FP34C submission document must move to the MYS portal to make their monthly FP34C declarations. Pharmacy contractors who have not already registered for MYS can download and complete the form on the NHSBSA’s website and send it to nhsbsa.mys@nhs.net.Once the FP34C is submitted electronically, contractors should print their completed submission document from MYS and enclose it with their monthly prescription bundle to dispatch to the relevant NHSBSA pricing division by the 5 April. Please note that from April 2022 (for prescriptions dispensed in March 2022), the NHSBSA may apply an administrative deduction of £25 if a prescription bundle is submitted late.
