Reimbursement Review Reports

The latest CADTH Reimbursement Review reports are posted to this page. CADTH reimbursement reviews are comprehensive assessments of the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, as well as patient and clinician perspectives, of a drug or drug class. The assessments inform non-binding recommendations that help guide the reimbursement decisions of Canada's federal, provincial, and territorial governments, with the exception of Quebec. Implementation advice and funding algorithms are provided where applicable.
