NEW DELHI: Over 20 medical devices that are notified as 'drugs' must all carry the maximum retail price on the packs, drug pricing regulator NPPA said today.
These devices include heart valves, surgical dressings, condoms, stents, disposable hypodermic syringes and orthopaedic implants.
"It has come to knowledge of NPPA that several medical devices are available in the market and also being used in health care facilities where no MRP is printed on the package by manufacturers/importers," National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA) said in a notification.
This is a blatant violation of law of the land, it added.

Total joint arthroplasty is associated with high patient satisfaction and functional improvement. With approximately 400,000 Medicare beneficiaries undergoing the procedure annually, total joint arthroplasty represents the largest total cost of all surgical procedures in the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) budget1-3. This has resulted in vigorous efforts by the CMS to control costs without negatively affecting outcomes. Alternative payment methods, such as bundling, allow the CMS to control costs by reimbursing for value rather than volume. The Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) program for a 90-day bundled payment represents CMS’s most recent alternative payment method designed to accomplish this cost-containment goal
