Abstract

The author reflects on the pharmaceutical pricing schemes in Europe based on a third-party payer's perspective as of May 2016. The conceptual approaches to pricing are explored which are cost, reference, and value-based as well as reference pricing in Western European countries. Also discussed are the pricing trends and policy implications.
