Coverage with evidence development, only in research, risk sharing, or patient access scheme? A framework for coverage decisions

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Until recently, purchasers' options regarding whether to pay for the use of medical technologies have been binary in nature: a treatment is either covered or not. Policies, however, have emerged that expand the decision options, for example, linking coverage to evidence development, an option increasingly used for treatments with limited/uncertain evidence. There has been little effort to reconcile the features of technologies with the available decision options.
