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

You can view the GMS SFE in full on the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) website.
