Make NHS business authority unable to fine you without making you aware you owe
I was fined over £100 for an unpaid prescription fee I didn't know I owed for, the NHS business services authority never contacted me to tell me I owed them for a prescription they just sent me a fine months later.
Stop giving fines to people who are unaware they owe money
Before being fined the NHS BSA should give you a chance to pay the original outstanding amount. Just sending out fines is not fair and not right
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
If you were entitled to a free prescription, or had an exceptional reason not to pay, you can challenge a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN). You can find out how to challenge a PCN here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
