Products include Heart Valves, Annuloplasty rings and bands, and Ventricular Assisted Devices. Sutureless Valves are one of the high cost tariff excluded devices under the NHS England HCTED programme. NHS Supply Chain is the mandated route for the HCTED programme, and trusts who are commissioned to provide this service are directed to purchase all their requirements through NHS Supply Chain. Precise quantities are unknown. It is anticipated that initial expenditure will be in the region of £30,000,000 in the first year of this Framework Agreement, however this is approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the Framework Agreement. ## Lots (4) ### Lot 1: Heart Valves and Annuloplasty Rings & Bands - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 33100000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** Products include, but are not limited to; Annuloplasty band Annuloplasty ring Heart Valve Instruments Heart valve mechanical Heart valve root replacement Heart valve sutureless Heart valve sutures Heart Valve Tissue Heart valve tissue pericardial Hea... - **Options published:** yes ### Lot 2: Ventricular Assisted Devices - **Lot id:** `2` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 33100000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** Certain products within Lot 2 Ventricular assisted devices may be classified as high cost tariff excluded devices under the NHS England High Cost Tariff Excluded Devices (HCTED) programme.
