E-DRUG: New WHO Europe Publication - Medicines Reimbursement policies in Europe
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear colleagues,
We are very happy to inform you that the WHO Regional Office for Europe has just released a new publication on "Medicines reimbursement policies in Europe".
The report examines the various policies that increase access to affordable medicines. Based on direct data collection from countries in the WHO European Region, it showcases diverse national practices and aims to identify key aspects of policy frameworks that protect vulnerable groups from unaffordable out-of-pocket payments for medicines.
The report can be downloaded on the WHO EURO website:
