Understanding the Impact of AMNOG Reform on Healthcare Pricing & Reimbursement Dossiers in Germany
German Benefit Assessment (AMNOG) Dossier
The AMNOG reform of 2011 has introduced more scrutiny towards new drug approvals and thus impacted pricing potential. The benefit assessment dossier (“AMNOG dossier”) is a critical part of the added benefit assessment and it is fundamental to submit a dossier that is complete, accurate, and oriented towards the requirements of the Federal Joint Committee (Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss, G-BA) and the Institut für Qualität und Wirtschaftlichkeit im Gesundheitswesen (IQWiG).
Justin Stindt Consultants is an agency specialized in German benefit assessment dossiers. Our experienced team of Consultants and Experts will help you to articulate the added benefit of your product in the AMNOG dossier.
The G-BA bases its Added Benefit assessment on the dossier submitted by the manufacturer. Most recent assessments fall within the categories of minor or not quantifiable added benefit, which can lead to challenging pricing discussions with the GKV-Spitzenverband.
Given how critical the dossier and its contents are to this decision, it is important to submit a dossier that is complete, accurate, and oriented towards the requirements of the G-BA and IQWiG. The optimal way to ensure that the information in the dossier matches the requirements of the G-BA is to have an early advice meeting directly with the G-BA. For more information visit our Health Technology Appraisal scientific advice discussions – Germany.
Although Germany remains an attractive market for pharma, biotech and MedTech, where premium pricing is possible, if G-BA requirements are not met, GKV-Spitzenverband requests significant discounts which can in the worst case lead manufacturers to withdraw from the German market.
Drugs with EMA orphan designation are eligible to submit a simplified dossier for G-BA benefit assessment and do not need to argue their added benefit against a comparator but rather provide evidence for the extent of the added benefit.
Justin Stindt Consultants is your agency for an optimal AMNOG dossier. Our team of experienced Consultants and experts will support you with a benefit assessment dossier meeting the G-BA and IQWiG requirements and bringing out the additional benefit of your product vs the appropriate comparator therapy.
Our agency has been selected by many pharma, biotech and medtech companies as service provider of choice to write the German P&R dossier / AMNOG dossier. Our company leverages German native speakers with extensive experience both in the industry and consulting agencies and a successful track record of P&R dossiers leading to sustainable Pricing & Reimbursement in Germany.
