Monitoring Document PMD |

Reports
which provide financial monitoring information about prescribing
costs against budgets.
The PMD system provides GPs, Primary Care Trusts, Strategic
Health Authorities and the DH with monthly expenditure
and forecasting reports on the cost of prescribing against
their budgets.
Once a year the system is used in conjunction with DH
guidelines and local knowledge to set appropriate prescribing
budgets for GP practices. GPs automatically receive a
monthly statement and an annual end of year return.
Relates to England.
