Subject Matter Details
Policies or Program
- Input on the work of the Advisory Committee on the Implementation of National Pharmacare, specifically as it relates to access to medicines.
- The Government of Ontario has passed legislation requiring the public disclosure of payments made to Health Care Providers and Health Care Organizations by the broader health care industry, including pharmaceutical companies, generic manufacturers, and medical device companies. GlaxoSmithKline seeks to advocate for a national approach to disclosure through either the support of similar provincial initiatives, coordinated action through the Federal / Provincial and Territorial meetings of the Ministers of Health, and / or the establishment of national requirements.
Regulation
- Reforms to the Patented Medicines Review Board (PMPRB), whose guidelines seek to ensure a balance between the prices set by manufacturers for patented medicines sold in Canada and the maintenance of an attractive environment for pharmaceutical research and development. Specifically with regard to ensuring that any actions and proposed changes by the PMPRB do not negatively impact access to patented medicines in Canada.
