(a)before IP completion day received relevant services from a relevant body, or

(b)on or after IP completion day received relevant services from a relevant body as part of a course of treatment which commenced before IP completion day,

the charges payable in respect of those services must be calculated in the same way as provided for by regulation 13(1) of the National Health Service (Cross-Border Healthcare) Regulations 2013.]

(4) In this regulation “the tariff” has the meaning set out in paragraphs (5) to (8), subject to paragraphs (9) to (12).

(5) [F6Where] a relevant service is specified in the national tariff under section 116(1)(a) (national tariff) of the 2012 Act, the tariff for the provision of that service to an overseas visitor is such price as is determined in accordance with the national tariff on the basis of the national price specified in the national tariff for that service F7... including any applicable modification referred to in paragraph (10).

(b)that relevant service constitutes part, but not all, of the bundle of services; and

(c)the [F1relevant body] is unable to determine the price of that relevant service as an individual service within the bundle of services to which the pathway payment relates,

the tariff is such reasonable price for the provision of the relevant service that [F8the relevant body] determines having had regard to the matters set out in paragraph (7).

(7) The matters to which the [F1relevant body] must have regard for the purposes of determining the tariff for a relevant service under paragraph (6) are—

(a)the rules specified in the national tariff under section 116(4)(b) of that Act make provision for a unit price to be used as the basis for determining the price payable for that service (even if only in certain circumstances specified in the rules), the tariff is such price as would be determined for that service in accordance with those rules on the basis of that unit price;

(b)a variation specified in the national tariff under section 116(4)(a), except for a variation—

(i)to reflect regional cost difference; or

(ii)to reflect patient complexity.

(a)made in accordance with an agreement made under section 124(1) of the 2012 Act; or

(b)determined by [F10NHS England] under section 125(1) of the 2012 Act.

(11) For the purposes of determining the tariff for a relevant service provided to an overseas visitor—

(b)under paragraph (8), an agreement between a commissioner and the [F1relevant body] made in accordance with the rules [F12specified in the national tariff under section 116(4)(b) of the 2012 Act] will be relevant for the determination of the tariff only when the commissioner which is party to the agreement is the commissioner with responsibility for commissioning services in respect of that overseas visitor.

(12) Where rules made under section 116(6) provide for which specification of a relevant service is to apply in a particular case or cases of any particular description, the [F1relevant body] must comply with those rules when calculating charges under this regulation for that relevant service.
