L'Inde a mis en place un programme de sante de plus de 5 Milliards de dollars, avec pour but de permettre a toute la population un acces libre aux medicaments des la fin de cette annee.
Les Medecins sont desormais tenus, sous peine de sanctions, de prescrire des medicaments generiques et ceux-ci seront gratuits.


Arrow India to provide free generic drugs
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/india-to-provide-free-generic-drugs/article4391193/

India has put in place a $5.4-billion policy to provide free medicine to its people, a decision that could change the lives of hundreds of millions, but a ban on branded drugs stands to cut Big Pharma out of the windfall.

From city hospitals to tiny rural clinics, India’s public doctors will soon be able to prescribe free generic drugs to all comers, vastly expanding access to medicine in a country where public spending on health was just $4.50 per person last year.

The plan was quietly adopted last year but not publicized. Initial funding has been allocated in recent weeks, officials said.

Under the plan, doctors will be limited to a generics-only drug list and face punishment for prescribing branded medicines
, a major disadvantage for pharmaceutical giants in one of the world’s fastest-growing drug markets.

“Without a doubt, it is a considerable blow to an already beleaguered industry, recently the subject of several disadvantageous decisions in India,” said KPMG partner Chris Stirling, who is European head of Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals.

“Pharmaceutical firms will likely rethink their emerging-markets strategies carefully to take account of this development, and any similar copycat moves across other geographies,” he added.

But the initiative would overhaul a system where health care is often a luxury and private clinics account for four times as much spending as state hospitals, despite 40 per cent of the people living below the poverty line, or $1.25 a day or less.

Within five years, up to half of India’s 1.2 billion people are likely to take advantage of the scheme, the government says. Others are likely to continue visiting private hospitals and clinics, where the scheme will not operate.

Global drug makers such as Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline and Merck will be hit. They spend billions of dollars a year researching new treatments and target huge growth for branded medicine in emerging economies such as India, where generics account for around 90 per cent of drug sales by value, far more than in developed countries.

U.S.-based Abbott Laboratories, which bought an Indian generics maker in 2010, is the biggest seller of drugs, both branded and generic, in India, followed by GlaxoSmithKline.

In March, India granted its first compulsory licence, allowing a domestic drug maker to manufacture a copy-cat version of Nexavar, a cancer drug developed by Germany’s Bayer, unnerving foreign drug makers that fear a lack of intellectual-property protection in emerging markets.

In another blow to Big Pharma’s emerging-market ambitions, China recently overhauled regulations to grant authorities the power to allow domestic drug makers to produce cheap copies of medicines protected by patents.

About 600 billion rupees ($11-billion) in drugs are sold each year in India, or 482 billion rupees at wholesale. Drugs covered under the new policy account for about 60 per cent of existing sales, or 290 billion rupees at wholesale cost.

India’s new policy, to be implemented by the end of 2012 and rolled out nationwide within two years, is expected to provide 52 per cent of the population with free drugs by April, 2017 .
