NHS England has confirmed that community pharmacies will be granted an exemption from the business continuity requirements within the Information Governance (IG) Toolkit. The exemption will apply for 2014/15, but not for next year.
Contractors will still need to complete the rest of the Toolkit by the deadline of the 31st March 2015.
Have a look at your SOP’s. Do they need up dating in light of this change?
