In 2014, was saved by the price fixing 13.9 million on the original cost. But those savings could later years still be very high, up to 203 million in 2018.

That's because there has since been negotiated yet more drugs and because there is often agreed with the manufacturer that the discount on the price increases as more people use the drug.

It involves drugs that are otherwise too expensive to maintain in the basic package. Thus, the total annual costs for cancer agent nivolumab estimated at 200 million euros, which would amount to around 134 000 per patient per additional year of life. Thanks to the negotiations that are still paid, although remains secret what the deal was. Schippers only makes the total annual drug savings public.

That secrecy is also immediately the main criticism of its drugs policy. Thereby the House can not control how much lower the price of an individual drug actually works out after the negotiations. Schippers acknowledges that and calls it 'unsatisfactory', but finds the lack of transparency subordinate to the result.

'If you pay what the fool it, is ultimately the industry's sitting pretty,' she said today in an interview with The Associated Press.
