Prescription Pricing Division
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Prescription Pricing Division (PPD) is the largest organisational component of the NHS Business Services Authority (NHS BSA), an Arms-Length body within the National Health Service in England. Its primary function is to determine the reimbursement and remuneration due when prescriptions are dispensed outside hospitals anywhere in England or the Channel Islands. Detailed information, collected when prescriptions are processed for payment, is then made available to organisations within the NHS, to support management, planning and governance activities.
