Abstract:

Risk-sharing is one of the most commonly utilized measures for managed access to medications, aiming to distribute the uncertainties of incorporation between the manufacturer and the healthcare system. The objective of this integrative review was to identify the implementation of risk-sharing models in access to treatment for rare diseases in Brazil and world. The chosen databases were: Virtual Health Library (BVS), Embase, Pubmed, and Scopus. After exclusions, 18 studies were included. The high cost of treatment and uncertainty regarding clinical evidence were observed as the primary barriers to access. Risk-sharing models are generally divided into financially based models and performance-based models. It was noted that the implementation of these mechanisms expands access to technologies that would likely not be available otherwise and highlights significant insights, such as the lack of transparency and standardization in implementation, resulting in inequity of access to orphan drugs. It is concluded that the implementation of these models minimizes financial and performance barriers, potentially expanding access to treatments for rare diseases. Transparency and the exchange of experiences between countries are crucial for the creation of policies and guidelines that make the process more effective in expanding access.
