Costing Showcase: From Costing Data to Tariff Design

10:00–11:00am | Wednesday 03 December 2025

Join us for a deep dive into how NHS England’s costing data informs the development of national tariffs — and why there’s often a time gap between the publication of costing data and the release of tariffs.

This session will walk through the journey from trust-submitted costing data to tariff-setting, helping you understand how your work contributes to national pricing decisions.

What you’ll gain:

• A clear explanation of how costing data underpins tariff creation
• Insight into the processes and checks involved between costing and tariff publication
• A better understanding of how this timeline supports accuracy, transparency, and value for the NHS

This is a must-attend session for costing professionals who want to see the bigger picture and strengthen the link between local data and national policy.

Presented by:

• Jonas Akuffo, Head of Payment Production, NHS England
• Chona Labor, Senior Lead - Payment Production, NHS England
• Amara Arinzeh, Senior Manager - Payment Production, NHS England

This session will be held as a MS Teams meeting.

If you wish to attend please register your place here and a meeting invite will be sent to on the day of the session.
