Time to End Foreign Free Riding and Fix the Global Imbalance in Biomedical Innovation

American patients enjoy significant health benefits from groundbreaking medicines developed right here at home. Yet, despite rhetoric to the contrary, the prices Americans pay for these innovative treatments are substantially below their true societal value. If other countries paid for them fairly, we would enjoy more breakthroughs, faster, with more savings.

Valuing Healthcare Innovation

When measuring the value of new medicines, some countries rely on an outdated and incomplete methodology that understates the true value of innovative treatments. Setting prices in the U.S. based on these artificially low estimates of value would reduce investment in biomedical R&D and yield fewer novel medicines that address critical unmet needs of patients.

Foreign countries rely on flawed and outdated HTA or ”value assessment” methods to justify low prices for medicines

The methods many countries use to evaluate new medicines significantly underestimate the true societal benefits of innovative treatments. When high-income countries use traditional methods as a bargaining tool to deny coverage and/or secure lower prices, they free ride on the R&D investments of others and reduce patient access to novel medicines in their own countries.
