Is purchasing a prescription prepayment certificate [PPC] acceptable ?

Fatawa Question

I would like to know if the following is permissible : http://www.nhs.uk/NHSEngland/Healthcosts/Pages/PPC.aspx If you need more than 12 prescribed medicines each year, you could save money with a 12-month PPC. You can also buy a three-month PPC, which will save you money if you need more than three prescribed medicines in three months. The charge for a single prescribed medicine is £ 8.05, whereas a three-month PPC will cost you £ 29.10 and a 12-month PPC £ 104.00.
