New position paper “Comment on the Ordinance on criteria for inclusion of medicinal products in CHIF list”

American Chamber of Commerce has published a new position paper on the topic of the Ordinance on criteria for inclusion of medicinal products in CHIF list.

American Chamber of Commerce in Croatia has published a new position paper on the topic of the Draft of the Ordinance amending the Ordinance establishing the criteria for the inclusion of medicinal products in the reimbursement list of the Croatian Health Insurance Fund and the method of reporting.

AmCham believes that the proposed Draft of the Ordinance introduces many amendments which are certain to put access to medicinal products at risk, and thereby also the outcomes of patient treatment in the Republic of Croatia. This contradicts the publicly presented objectives of the comprehensive healthcare system reform, which places Croatian users of the healthcare system and services at its center. In addition, AmCham considers that decreasing medicinal product prices is unsustainable amid the situation of growing inflation and the enormous increase in raw material and transport prices.

AmCham’s position paper is available here.
