i dnt take medcine for my ilnesses as i cant afford them medcine prices have gone up to buy them and i dnt have alot of money i can only just survive with what i have now let alone spending money on pills so i have no medication evidence as i dnt have no medication so il probably not get in the support group just for that, but its not my fault i cant afford to pay the chemists rediculous prices i find it hard to believe that on jobseekers u get meds free but on disability benefit you do not unless really really severe
It has nothing to do with whether you are receiving a disability benefit or not, it is based on whether you are receiving an Income Related benefit or a Contributary Based one.
IB is the latter as is ESA(CB) and JSA(CB), however, IS, ESA(IR) and JSA(IR) are the former.
Even if you are receiving a Contributary Based benefit, you can reduce the cost of medecines by purchasing a Prescription Pre-Payment certificate.
