Applications for the 2023/24 High Cost Device List are open in England

In March 2022, NHS England opened a call for applications to the High Cost Device List (HCDL) changes for the 2023/24 National Tariff Payment System.

Some high cost devices (and drugs) are excluded from calculating unit and national prices under the National Tariff Payment System. HCDL items that are funded nationally by NHS England are paid in addition to the price of the related service. Those HCDL items, funded locally by Clinical Commissioning Groups, are integrated into the fixed component of the aligned payment and incentive approach (current payment model in England).

To nominate a drug or device to be added or removed from the HCDL for 2023/24, the application form should be filled in and sent via email (pricing@england.nhs.uk) by May 31, 2022. Nominations submitted after this date may be considered for a future tariff.
