Topic

Every European country has its distinct development of health care system, different reimbursement logic and particular regulations. In Germany, reimbursement registration is highly regulated and centralized, while in France, the Health Insurance is run by two main funds and a dozen of specific funds, while there are more than hundred funds in Germany. The scope and role of statutory health insurances also vary. For instance, all UK residents receive health care services and products free of charge; while in Germany, only certain services or prescribed products are for free for insured patients. Basically, Scandinavian countries mainly work with tenders.

Even though medical device registration in a certain list or directory is required in all these countries, the procedure, required documentation, fees, validity and resulting reimbursement rates are country-dependent. For manufacturers to familiarize themselves with such peculiarities consumes precious time and effort.
