The Pharmaceuticals Pricing Board’s new e-service will be introduced at the turn of October and November 2023. The service will first be launched in Finnish. The Swedish and English versions will be introduced later and the date will be announced separately.
In the new e-service, companies can submit applications for reimbursement status and wholesale price for medicines, basic ointments and clinical nutritional preparations as well as notifications of reimbursable products as they currently do. The identification of a company and a person is based on strong identification provided by the Digital and Population Data Services Agency (Suomi.fi services). The valid authorisations given in the Suomi.fi services also function as such in the new e-service.
The Pharmaceuticals Pricing Board’s current e-service will be closed permanently at the end of September 2023. There will be no e-service available in October. More information on the opening of the new e-service will be provided at a later date. In October, new applications as well as supplements and additional information on pending applications should be submitted to the Board via the turvaviesti.gov.fi portal. Renewal applications and applications concerning products which are in the middle of a reference price system transition period may exceptionally be submitted to the Board when the new e-service is available. The Board will take into account the delay in the delivery of these applications when processing them.
The Pharmaceuticals Pricing Board will organise training for companies on the use of the e-service on Tuesday 17 October 2023 at 9–11. The training will be held in Finnish on Teams. The training is free of charge and no advance registration is required. The Teams link will be added to the Pharmaceuticals Pricing Board website closer to the date of the training.
