Mestre-Ferrandiz, J., Shaw, B., Chatterjee, C. et al. (3 more authors) (2022) Policy instruments (non-price) for medical innovation. Report. Oslo Medicines Initiative technical report . World Health Organization ISBN 9789289058223
Abstract
Innovation policy instruments are policy interventions with a specific mechanism of action that influences the innovation process. This Oslo Medicines Initiative technical report presents a broad range of such instruments available to national policy-makers in support of innovation for new medicines (excluding those focused on price, which are covered elsewhere in the report series). This report explores various types of policy instruments, based on reviews of the literature on policies for innovation in the medical and other sectors. For each type identified, the report explores the mechanisms of action, the effects these have and where they occur, and the extent to which these instruments have been implemented globally. It also sets out considerations for their effective implementation. The report demonstrates that the long-established push/pull (supply/ demand) framing that dominates discourse around medical innovation can be broadened, providing policy-makers with instruments to supplement push/pull approaches, by emphasizing the role of communication, collaboration and coordination in supporting the emergence of medicines to address societal needs.
