Getting the most out of pharmaceutical expenditures
Saxenian, Helen
This paper reviews the major policies that countries employ to rationalize drug expenditures in terms of their impact, administrative costs, and relevance to different types of health care systems and levels of development. There is a remarkable convergence in pharmaceutical expenditure policies across countries, whatever their level of income and industrialization, although policy emphasis and application vary in different settings. The paper concludes that developing countries have considerable opportunities to increase the efficiency of pharmaceutical expenditure. Savings from efficiency gains could be used to increase the population's access to essential drugs.
