The GMS SFE outlines what a practice can claim for and how they'll be paid.

Where drugs or appliances are provided by a practice, reimbursement and remuneration is based on the SFE paragraph 16.4.

The amounts payable in relation to the provision of drugs and appliances are calculated using the following information:

  • basic price (Drug Tariff Part II, clause 8, 10, 11, 13 and part VIII)
  • discount scale (SFE, Annex G, Part 1)
  • VAT allowance (SFE, paragraph 16.3)
  • dispensing fees (SFE, Annex G, Part 2)
  • out of pocket expenses (Drug Tariff Part II, clause 12)
