Is your husband at the age where he would receive free prescriptions on the UK, ie over 60?
If he is under 60 he would have to pay in the UK, unless he is receiving medication for his diabetic treatment/control, in which case he would have free prescriptions - whatever age.
If there rules are mirrored in Spain under the Spanish Healthcare agreement with the UK then this may be why he’s having to pay for his strips?
If he is over 60, then disregard all of the above, it will be interesting to find out the reason why he is being charged !
