If the service must be temporarily withdrawn by the pharmacy contractor due to circumstances beyond the scope of the business continuity plan, they must inform the NHS Directory of Services (DoS) Provider and Commissioner Helpline (0300 0200 363) as soon as possible to stop referrals being made to the pharmacy. GP practices and UEC settings within the local primary care network (PCN) must also be contacted to prevent them from making further direct referrals. The pharmacy contractor must also inform the local commissioner of the service of their temporary withdrawal from the service
