Dear NHS Tees Valley Clinical Commissioning Group,

I would like to request the following information with regards to primary rebates schemes that have been signed by your CCG/ Board in the past 12 months.

1. Are there any signed for any of the following products, and if so , which ones:

Insulins (basal, bolus and premix)
GLP-1 (i.e Trulicity)
DPP-IV (i.e Januvia or Onglyza)

Growth Hormones (norditropin; omnitrope; Genotropin; humatrope; nutropinAq; Saizen)

2. What are the start and finish dates (or ongoing if open ended)?

3. Which rebates are independent? or are they aligned to PrescQIPP?

4. What is the total number of primary rebate schemes (any included) that your CCG/ Board has signed?

Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions.

Yours faithfully,
