What? ”Technologies” in hTa The interventions (drugs, procedures,
complex multidisciplinary activities) which can be provided / reimbursed within the system when deliveringwithin the system when deliveringhealth services
The interventions applied to the system to organize service delivery accessto organize service delivery, access, financing, payment of providers, etc.

DMPs are popular – at least in Germany whereDMPs are popular – at least in Germany, wherethey were tied to financial incentives until 2008

DMPs: How effective?• Crucial and weak point!• Most publications report on relatively small-
scale interventions without control group or g pinadaequate control (e.g. no randomization, no risk adjustment)j )
• (As for pharmaceuticals etc.:) the weaker the study design the larger the published effectsstudy design, the larger the published effects
• Logic of Evidence-based Medicine applies: best available evidence countsbest available evidence counts
DMPs: how costly and how cost-effective?effective?
• Even less published evidence; if costs are t d i l ti th th d l ireported in evaluations, the methodology is
usually flawed!• On macro-economic implications, we have
to rely on models and projections!y p j• Managing CD costs additional money
(-> not effective for cost-containment in( > not effective for cost containment in short run),but may be cost-effective (data missing!)but may be cost effective (data missing!).

Shaping the future of managing chronic diseases in Europe
• New pharmaceuticals and medical devices may help toNew pharmaceuticals and medical devices may help to improve CD -> but critical assessment regarding patient benefit, based on accepted methodology, crucialbenefit, based on accepted methodology, crucial
• Right mix of financial incentives very important (for insured/ patients payers providers )insured/ patients, payers, providers …)
• Strengthen coordination (in access, orientation, provision of information continuity/coordination/communicationof information, continuity/coordination/communication among professionals)
• Elaborated information and communication technologies• Elaborated information and communication technologiescrucial, but agreement on international technical stabdards necessarynecessary
• Establish evaluation culture without exceptions

Examples of new payment measuresExamples of new payment measures• ‘year of care’ payment for the complete service

i b f h i i f i• per patient bonus for physicians for acting as gatekeepers for chronic patients and for setting care protocols (F)protocols (F)

Chronic patients‘ cost-sharing –traditional approachestraditional approaches
t f i l t d t th i• no co-payments for services related to their disease, e.g. ‘ALD’ (30 mainly chronic diseases) in France
• lower annual limits on co-paymentslower annual limits on co payments• certain drugs require lower cost-sharing if the
indication is deemed serious
Chronic patients‘ cost-sharing –newer approachesnewer approaches
• ‘ALD’ exemption only if care protocol is establishedfor each patient by their GP and signed by patientfor each patient by their GP and signed by patient(France since 2004)
• cost-sharing may be reduced or waived if patientsenrol in DMPs
• patients with chronic conditions/complex needsmanaged via a care plan/ inscribed in DMP receivemanaged via a care plan/ inscribed in DMP receiverebates (Australia) or additional services (Germany)
• ‘ALD’ exemption only if protocol is presented toevery treating physician at each visit (France)
• lower cost-sharing limit applies only if patientis compliant (Germany since 2007)
Evaluation culture• Many aspects of managing chronic disease are not
properly evaluated -> effectiveness and cost-properly evaluated -> effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of various prevention and treatment interventions not well establishedinterventions not well established.
• Policy-makers are therefore not best equipped to make informed “HTA” decisionsinformed HTA decisions.
-> Policy-makers must ensure that evaluationybased on rigorous methodology is an integralpart of all strategies.p gExisting data should be made available forresearch and review across differenttechnologies, settings and providers.
