What is Appliance Dispensing?
Appliance dispensing works much like prescription dispensing, enabling a local pharmacy to provide specific products and items required for managing a patient’s condition. This can be carried out by a Dispensing Appliance Contractor (DAC) partnered with the pharmacy or directly by the pharmacy acting as the dispensing contractor.

Why is Appliance Dispensing Important?
Appliance dispensing ensures patients can receive necessary appliances without frequent visits to their GP surgery. Prescriptions are prepared in advance, ensuring timely supply of items.

What is Included Under the Appliance Dispensing Service?
A wide range of appliances can be supplied under this service, including:

• Stoma pouches
• Catheter bags and related appliances
• Compression bandages and hosiery
• Laryngectomy and tracheostomy tubes/appliances
