Fund free NHS prescriptions for people with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Petition Details

Rheumatoid Arthritis is a life-long autoimmune condition. There is no cure but the condition can be managed by medication which slows progression and worsening of symptoms however it does not currently carry entitlement to free NHS prescriptions in England.

Additional Information

Rheumatiod Arthritis is a serious health condition that without proper treatment can cause people agonising pain, joint damage, disfigurements and lead to people suffering with mobility issues. Medical exemption certificates currently support several types of autoimmune conditions but not R.A. People who have Rheumatoid Arthritis and are in low income households don't want to have to choose between the cost of medications and mobility.
