The authors have identified<\/a> three cost-saving levers: user participation, price and tariff control, and volume control. The first lever would be the introduction of a deductible and an increase in co-payments. Although they are the only healthcare products not subject to a deductible, the introduction of a \u20ac1 deductible would generate savings of \u20ac259 million by 2025. A ten-point increase in co-payments would generate savings of \u20ac370 million. The second lever, based on controlling prices and tariffs, is already being used, and currently generates savings of \u20ac128 million a year. This amount could be increased by \u20ac100-250 million as part of the negotiations conducted by the Comit\u00e9 \u00e9conomique des produits de sant\u00e9 (Ceps), over the period 2025-2027. <\/p>\nIn addition, the volume of prescriptions could be monitored more closely by means of prior agreement requests. It would also be advisable to provide better support for professionals, notably through the development of prescription and dispensing assistance software. Finally, a review of indications and prescribing conditions is deemed necessary to ensure consistency with health recommendations. <\/p>\n
