Freedom of Information Act 2000 – Request for Information

We are pleased to respond to your request for information and our response is set out below:

Request

We are currently investigating the Drug Tariff, in particular the Stoma Market (Chapter 23 of the Monthly Prescription Cost Analysis Data), with the fundamental objective of reducing increasing costs for CCGs.

To assist us with this research, we ask for you to provide a monthly summary of the number of patients ordering items from Chapter 23 (Stoma related products).

Response

We do not routinely hold this information. The total items in chapter 23 – stoma appliances is available on Open Prescribing, here is the link to the graph and the background data can be downloaded to a CSV.
