Tariff-excluded drugs and devices

The GMMMG list of tariff-excluded drugs is available below.

The corresponding list of tariff-excluded devices is under review. In the interim, resources from NHS England are available. To determine whether a product is tariff-excluded:

1. Download the Annex A workbook of the most recent edition of the NHS Payment Scheme. Check tab 12a for high cost devices and tab 12b for high cost medicines.
   • If the product is not listed, it is not tariff-excluded.
   • If a device is listed, check the commissioner and procurement route in columns J and K
   • If a medicine is listed, check the commissioner using step 2 below
2. Download the most recent edition of the NHS England high cost drugs commissioning list.
   • If the medicine was listed in Annex A of the NHS Payment Scheme but is not listed here, it is an ICS-commissioned high cost drug.
   • If the medicine is listed, it is NHSE-commissioned for the indication(s) listed in column C. Note that use for other indications may be ICS-commissioned.
