2004-2009 – Extracted from Poster Presented at CADTH Symposium – April 2010
What’s happening & What does it mean for patients
§ Time from Recommendation to Reimbursement is Increasing - Too slow for many patients
- <200 days (2004-2009) to 280-290 days (2004-2017) = 9+ months
- Drugs for Rare Diseases is now 422-438 days = 14+ months
§ pCPA process has added Time - Responsibility: pCPA and Pharmaceutical Companies
> Strong preparation is very important
§ More Warning Clouds - pCPA (drug plans) may not negotiate when drug receives HTA Recommendation with
Clinical Criteria and/or Conditions
> Perceived no unmet medical need
> Payers may not have resources
§ Every delay can hurt a deserving patient - We can’t relax – we need to be persistent with our message
