August Category M prices published

DHSC has published the Category M adjustment for August 2024.

This extraordinary adjustment aims to reduce total reimbursement by circa £9m per month. This follows an error in the calculation of July 2024 Category M prices.

Further reductions in reimbursement will take place between October 2024 to March 2025.

Read the Community Pharmacy England statement.

In this adjustment:

472 lines are down in price, 156 by more than 10 per cent
157 lines are up in price, by up to 3.52 per cent

There are no additions or deletions.
