OOHC budgets are held locally. The OOHC expenditure shown only relates to FP10 prescribing.

Figures in the amount column refer only to aggregated (PCT and above) practice budgets notified to the PPA by PCT's. The PPA does not hold records of local contingency funds.

Budget and forecast figures will not be shown on your PMD statements for the first two months of each financial year. This is due to the volatility of prescribing over a short time period which can seriously distort the annual outrun amount.
