<p>The anticipated Pharmaceutical Price Regulation Scheme (PPRS) payment for 2014-15
in respect of England was estimated to be £375 million and this was taken into account
when setting the 2014-15 NHS England Mandate and overall NHS budget.</p><p> </p><p>
</p><p> </p><p>The actual amount received in financial year 2014-15 will depend on
actual sales covered by the PPRS in Quarters 2-4 2014 and Quarter 1 in 2015, and also
on the adjusted payment percentage for 2015 which will affect Quarter 1 2015.</p><p>
</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Government has committed to publishing PPRS payment data
quarterly. In line with this commitment, the Department has published the first two
quarters PPRS payments for 2014 and will be announcing the third and fourth quarter
payments, which will depend on growth in those quarters, together with the adjusted
payment percentage for 2015, in due course.</p><p> </p>
