Price Concessions
Published on: 4th April 2023 | Updated on: 27th November 2023
When community pharmacies cannot source a drug at or below the reimbursement price as set out in the Drug Tariff, the Welsh Government (WG) can introduce a price concession at the request of CPW. A price concession can be requested for any drugs listed in Part VIIIA, Part VIIIB and Part VIIID of the Drug Tariff. For any drugs granted price concessions, contractors are automatically reimbursed at the new prices for that month.
