Franco-Israeli seminar

Expensive innovative therapies: are our health systems capable of supporting them?

Innovative therapies (medications, medical devices, treatment procedures) are entering the market at unprecedented prices. Some gene therapies, for example, cost over 1 million euros. This trend not only affects the pharmaceutical field but also includes medical devices, prosthetics, and even surgical procedures. The ability of healthcare systems to accommodate these new therapies without delay when they meet genuine needs requires finding transitional reimbursement models while waiting for cost reductions.

The objective of this seminar is to facilitate the exchange of viewpoints among institutional and industrial leaders from both countries in order to identify potential pathways for the future.
