Emergency service fee drops to 265.55 euros

09/19/2014

In the second quarter of 2014, the night and emergency service charge is 265.55 euros. That's € 2.83 less per service provided than in the previous quarter. For around 20,317 pharmacies that have made 105,070 emergency services between April and June, the payment decisions will now be issued. These should be delivered to the weekly change.

Varying packages for night service
Since August of last year, the pharmacies have been receiving varying rates for night services. The amount for the first quarter of 2014 was € 268.38 for a full-time service. At the first payment of this lump sum, the amount per service was € 223.79. At that time, only the starting months of August and September were taken into account.

Estimates can be avoided
The lump sum depends on the number of delivered packs. 16 cents go into the NNF per delivered Rx prep, as the night and emergency service fund is abbreviated. Rx supplements are prescription drugs. The number of services is constant, but the amount paid out increases with the number of recipes needed. According to the NNF, cost estimates can be avoided if pharmacies have reported their special receipts for the upcoming quarter 3 to their designated data center by 6 October. Those who directly teach the NNF must submit their files as a signed original. (Bn)
