Health Canada delays drug-pricing reforms, citing COVID challenges for manufacturers

Health Canada delays drug-pricing reforms, citing COVID challenges for manufacturers by The Canadian Press Last Updated Jan 7, 2021 at 11:44 am EDT Health Canada says it’s delaying the implementation of long-awaited changes to Canada’s drug-pricing regime by another six months. A spokesman for the department says the amendments to patented medicine regulations, which were set to take effect Jan. 1, will now come into force on July 1.  Geoffroy Legault-Thivierge says the postponement is intended to give pharmaceutical manufacturers more time to adjust to new reporting requirements while dealing with the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The overhaul is set to recalibrate how the arm’s-length Patented Medicine Prices Review Board calculates fair prices for patented medicines.
