The SDMA invites you to take part in an important survey (https://www.coloplast.to/sdma-survey) on local formularies for medical devices.
This survey, launched by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), aims to gather insights that will help develop good practice guidance for the creation and use of local formularies for prescribing medical devices used at home or in the community.
Who should respond?
- Integrated Care Board Pharmacy Leads
- Suppliers and trade associations
- Specialist nursing societies
- Patient representative groups (including patients and carers)
- NHS trusts, GP practices, charities
…and others who may receive this via cascade.
Why your input matters:
Your feedback will directly inform DHSC guidance, ensuring formularies support both clinicians and patients effectively.
Deadline: 30 November 2025

Please share widely, as we want as many clinicians, patient groups, patients, and carers as possible to contribute.
