Overview

Pharmac is considering issuing a competitive process for supply of orthotics to Te Whatu Ora. The resulting agreements would not guarantee any exclusivity of supply or market share for a particular supplier.

The approximate gross annual expenditure of orthotics is $5 - $10 million per annum.

Pharmac previously ran an RFP process for rehabilitation equipment, patient positioning products and supports in 2018 which included orthotics. Suppliers would be required to submit information in line with the immobilisers, bracings and supports, and podiatry sub-categories of the 2018 RFP https://pharmac.govt.nz/news-and-resources/consultations-and-decisions/rfp-2018-10-10-rehab/. Suppliers whose orthotics are already listed on the Pharmaceutical Schedule would not be required to re-submit a response to this RFP.

Pharmac is working to establish national agreements for medical devices. Ultimately, Pharmac will make choices about which new medical devices will be introduced for use in Te Whatu Ora Hospitals, that will get the best health outcomes from within a set amount of funding, reflecting these choices via the Pharmaceutical Schedule. For further information on Pharmac’s approach to medical devices please see the Pharmac website: https://www.pharmac.govt.nz/hospital-devices.
