Electronic Prescriptions- Healthmail

Healthmail is a new initiative from the HSE which is a really convenient way for you to get your prescription from your GP to us.

Healthmail

Save time and avoid any unnecessary visits to the GP surgery? Ask them to use Healthmail to send your prescription to your local CarePlus Pharmacy.

With the recent change in prescription laws because of the Covid-19 pandemic, your GP or Hospital Consultant can now send a legal prescription via Healthmail. This is a safe and secure email portal exclusively for healthcare professionals who work with the HSE. This electronic prescription replaces the traditional paper prescription and the need for you to call to your doctors’ surgery to physically collect the prescription.

Just ask your GP to email your prescription to your local CarePlus Pharmacy and once a prescription is received, your CarePlus Pharmacists can dispense your medicines and contact you to arrange delivery or collection of your prescription.

Please note: Healthmail email addresses are for GP & Hospital use ONLY. It is not possible to receive a mail from outside of this network e.g., Gmail. Prescriptions sent to other e-mail addresses are not valid.

You can find Healthmail details for your local CarePlus Pharmacy on our Find Us page
