Abstract
The inequalities presented across Europe with respects to patients’ access to new medicines in part results from differences in processes and activities of Health Technology Assessment (HTA) and reimbursement processes that follow an approval of marketing authorisation. There is a dilemma between provision of innovative new medicines and ensuring that the pharmaceuticals chosen meet the needs of their healthcare system, thus providing quality and an affordable price. A greater understanding of the European Economic Area (EEA) healthcare systems and their processes leading to reimbursement decision-making is required in order to help understand why different outcomes occur and to identify where process improvement may influence such outcomes.
