Abstract

All'indomani della pubblicazione della bozza di Finanziaria-2008, il Quaderno invita a riflettere su alcuni aspetti critici dell'articolo 5 in tema di spesa farmaceutica pubblica. L'analisi comparata delle dinamiche di settore/mercato induce a suggerire che: (a) le modalità di pricing al lancio distinguano chiaramente tra tipologie di prodotti (innovazioni significative, innovazioni incrementali, copie); (b) il pay-back segua regole meno discrezionali e distorsive di quelle proposte in Finanziaria; (c) maggior rilievo sia dato alla costruzione della cornice regolatoria (lato offerta e domanda) e al coordinamento Stato-Regioni nell'individuazione dell'agenda (non solo la responsabilizzazione finanziaria) e nella sua implementazione. Ci si augura che il Quaderno possa positivamente contribuire al dibattito lungo l'iter della Finanziaria.
