Abstract

This study analyses how 14 OECD Countries refer to “value” when making decisions on reimbursement and prices of new medicines. It details the type of outcomes considered, the perspective and methods adopted for economic evaluation when used; and the consideration of budget impact. It describes which dimensions are taken into account in the assessment of “innovativeness” and the consequences of this assessment on prices; it confirms that treatments for severe and/or rare diseases are often more valued than others and shows how countries use product-specific agreements in an attempt to better align value and price. Cette étude analyse comment 14 pays de l’OCDE prennent en compte la “valeur” dans leurs décisions concernant le remboursement et le prix des nouveaux médicaments. Elle décrit le type de « résultats » pris en compte, la perspective et les méthodes adoptées pour l’évaluation économique là où elle est utilisée, ainsi que la prise en compte de l’impact budgétaire. Elle décrit quelles dimensions sont prises en compte pour évaluer le caractère innovant et les conséquences de cette évaluation en termes de prix ; elle confirme que les pays accordent souvent une valeur plus élevée aux traitements pour les maladies sévères et/ou rares et montre comment les pays utilisent les accords « par produit » pour tenter de mieux adapter le prix à la valeur.
