NMS Submissions
The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) now administers the collection of completed NMS electronic reporting templates from pharmacy contractors on behalf of NHS England. Pharmacy contractors will no longer receive any reminder and will therefore need to remember to submit their completed quarterly NMS electronic reporting templates to the NHSBSA via the Information Services Portal.
