Understanding the Pathway to Reimbursing Drugs in Canada

On June 18th, we held our final webinar in a three-part series with ‪@CreakyJoints‬ and ‪@GHLForg‬ that explains the process of discovering a new drug to getting the drugs paid for or covered by various public and private insurance plans in Canada.
We were joined by Dr. Matthew McDonald, Dr. Mina Tadrous, and CAPA President, Linda Wilhelm to learn more about:
- the role of the Canada Drug Agency and health technology assessment
- the steps and role of the Patented Medicines and Pricing Review Board and pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance
- how patients can get their medications paid for or reimbursed
- and how patients can share their feedback and get involved in these different processes
