Gain Best Practice in Negotiating Pricing

With individual provinces employing various strategies to manage drug costs effectively, develop your best practice in negotiating sustainable pricing whilst ensuring patients have the access they need. Take back to your office strategies to:

  • Understand Tiered Pricing Frameworks (TPFs) and how the pCPA evaluates and establishes prices for innovative and generic products entering or exiting the Canadian market.
  • Identify when generic substitution of brand-name drugs and other methods to reduce expenditure is appropriate.
  • Examine differences across the provinces, where they align, and how they incorporate this when building their pricing models for different drugs.

Optimize collaborative and province-specific tactics to balance cost containment with equitable access to essential medications.
