Department of Health written question – answered at on 5 April 2017.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will make it his policy to raise the NHS Improvement tariff for photodynamic therapy to cover the full cost of that procedure; and if he will make a statement.
NHS Improvement and NHS England have no plans to change the national prices for 2017/18 and 2018/19 for photodynamic therapy. However, providers and commissioners can agree to vary national prices where this would be in the best interest of patients. These ‘local variations’ can be agreed in accordance with National Tariff rules on locally-determined prices.
