Mail Online: £16 vitamin D treatment that cost the NHS £2400 due to ‘supply problems’
Emma Boon, campaign director for the TaxPayers’ Alliance, said: ‘It is very worrying that millions of pounds of taxpayers’ cash are being wasted because of supply problems.
GPs need clearer advice on vitamin D supplements to prevent greater costs in the future due to a potential increase in conditions caused by deficiency.
‘With money so tight in the NHS taxpayers can’t afford to pay thousands for a pre- scription that should cost significantly less.’
