The National Tariff Payment System is managed by NHS England.
The National Tariff Payment System sets out the national tariff for each year.
This set of prices and rules helps local Integrated Care Boards work with Health Care Providers, such as NHS Trusts and NHS Foundation Trusts to identify which health care SERVICES provide best value to their PATIENTS.
The 2022 Health and Care Act replaced the National Tariff Payment System with the NHS Payment Scheme, which came into effect on 1 April 2023.Data Set specifications that contain references to the National Tariff Payment System will be replaced with references to the NHS Payment Scheme in the next version of the Information Standards, where they are not already correct.
