Medicines for adults with ADHD, and ‘Ozmpic’ for diabetics: the recommendations of the Health Basket Committee for 2024 have been submitted

The public committee for the expansion of the health services basket for 2024 submitted today (Thursday) its recommendations for the expansion of the health basket to the Minister of Health, Uriel Bosso. The committee, chaired by Prof. Dina Ben Yehuda, finished her work yesterday at night. The basket’s budget framework will be 650 million shekels, like last year, the largest addition to the basket since its inception in 1995.

Among the prominent treatments that will enter the basket this year: drugs for attention and concentration disorders in young adults; The popular drugs for type 2 diabetes ‘Ozmpic’ and ‘Rivalsus’, one of whose side effects is weight loss, have been approved for those diagnosed with diabetes; A wide and uniform genetic screening to detect carriers for pre-pregnancy genetic diseases; A hybrid-automatic system for monitoring sugar and injecting insulin for type 1 diabetes patients aged 18-40, which will replace sugar monitoring with a needle (with deductible); and a line of new drugs or the extension of eligibility for existing breast cancer drugs. A one-time budget will be dedicated to encouraging routine vaccination among populations with a low vaccination rate.

Due to the war, the committee convened and submitted its recommendations late, so the new technologies in Sel are expected to become available to the public only from mid-March, after the Ministry of Health formulates circulars for the use of the new treatments.

Among the drugs and treatments that will not be included in the basket are vaccines for the meningococcal bacterium and the RSV virus, a decision that provoked criticism from the Association of Pediatricians. An innovative gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy will not go into the basket either. It was also agreed that the drug paxlobide for corona patients will enter the basket temporarily for this year, and the drug remdesivir will be given to patients but will be financed from another source, not within the health basket.

Medications for ADHD in young adults

the drugs for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Vyvanse ו-Lisdexaapproved for adults aged 18-28. requests totreatments forADHD in adults have been submitted for many years to the basket committee, and this year they were approved for the first time. What contributed to the committee’s decision this year was the war situation, and Health Minister Uriel Bosso’s commitment at the committee’s first meeting to “put emphasis on mental health.” According to the position of the Association of Psychiatrists submitted to the committee, there is a connection between ADHD and post-traumatic stress disorder.

The union’s position states that “Although not the entire population is expected to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following the Iron Swords War, an increase in the incidence of symptoms is expected Post-trauma, and it is known that ADHD is a risk factor for stress and PTSD. treatment of-ADHD can reduce the risk of post-traumatic stress disorder.”

The issue caused controversy among the members of the committee. The supporters of including the drugs in the basket claimed that they would help young people who served in the reserves and were financially harmed by the war to enter studies and the job market. Another incentive to put the drugs in the basket this year is the entry of a generic version of Vyvanse into the market later this year, which will allow the drug to be administered at a lower cost. However, some members of the committee opposed the inclusion of the drugs in the basket at the expense of other treatments, arguing that adults can bear the cost of the drug.

The diabetes medications whose side effect is weight loss

The drugs for type 2 diabetes, Ozempic and Rivalsus (Rybelsus), will enter the basket for patients diagnosed with diabetes. they approved and popular today also for pre-diabetic patients, among other things because of the side effect of weight loss. But as mentioned, the funding will be given to diagnosed patients only. 5,691 patients are expected to receive the drugs through the health basket this year.

A wide genetic screening for couples in the pre-pregnancy phase

The committee approved a broad and uniform genetic screening to detect carriers for pre-pregnancy genetic diseases. The new broad survey will replace the policy of the basket of tests given today, which varies according to the genetic origin of the subjects. The reason for the change is the understanding that the younger generation is sectarianly involved. In addition, genetic tests that are currently provided as part of the Shaban (additional health services) with a deductible of hundreds of shekels will be added to the basket. 126 thousand patients are expected to be tested in the new survey this year

A system that will help diabetics aged 18-40

The committee approved a hybrid-automatic system for monitoring sugar and injecting insulin for type 1 diabetes patients aged 18-40, which replaces the blood sugar tests with a needle and the calculation of the insulin dose for an independent injection, with a deductible of NIS 50 per month.

This system is already included in the basket for children with diabetes, and according to the data received by the committee, it reduces the risk of getting out of balance and suffering from the complications of the disease even among the adults, and raises the patients’ standard of living. 4,252 patients are expected to receive the technology this year.

A line of new drugs for breast cancer

268 A million shekels, or about 40% of the basket’s budget, will be dedicated to cancer treatments. Among the cancer treatments, breast cancer (the most common type of cancer in Israel) stands out as the area for which the highest funding has been allocated, and the highest number of patients will be treated through it.

In addition, the treatment line of the drug will be advanced Verzenio of the “Eli Lilly” company, for the treatment of early type breast cancer HR+HER2 with positive nodes, for 642 patients (the highest amount of all cancer treatments entered) at a total cost of NIS 48.954 million; The indication of the biological drug was expanded Keytruda, of the ‘Mark’ company, which encourages the immune system to fight cancer cells, for patients with type 1 breast cancer Triple Negative at an earlier stage than the indication that was included in the basket until now, for 116 patients, at a total cost of 25.631 million shekels; and will be given the medicine Trodelvy of the ‘Gilad’ company, for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic breast cancer Triple Negative, For 116 patients, a total cost of NIS 17.739 million.

The most expensive treatment that will enter the basket this year is the medicine Vygart Of the company Argenx, which costs NIS 643,000 for each patient. The drug is intended for the treatment of the disease myatenia gravis, which damages the connection between nerves and muscles and causes muscle weakness, and will be given to 50 patients a year.

Out of the basket: vaccines for children and innovative treatment for muscular dystrophy

As every year, many treatments submitted to the committee did not make the final list. These are the prominent treatments that did not enter the basket this year:

The meningococcal and RSV vaccines were left out

The committee chose to leave the vaccine out of the basket Beyfortus of the ‘Snoofy’ company against the RSV virus, which causes the hospitalization of 4,000 children a year due to pneumonia, and the vaccine Bexero Of the company GSK Against the invasive meningococcal bacterium, which causes meningitis in children and young people, with 1-3 deaths per year.

For several members of the committee, it was important to put a vaccine in the basket, but during the night hours of the last day of discussions, when it became clear that for the purpose of meeting the budget of the basket, they would have to decide between introducing a vaccine and the drugs to treatADHDit was agreed that a new vaccine would not be introduced, and that a one-time budget from the basket budget surplus, created as a result of the late submission of the recommendations, would be dedicated to encouraging vaccination with the existing vaccines in the basket among populations with a low vaccination percentage.

The innovative treatment for muscular dystrophy raised doubts

the treatment the genetic Television of the “Serpeta” company for children with the rare muscular dystrophy ‘Duchen’ was rejected by the committee, even though the drug was ranked first by the Association for Child Neurology. However, it was approved by theFDA just this year And yet is not provided in the public health system of any country in the world.

The rejection had two main reasons: doubt about the effectiveness, and the price. The committee members were skeptical about the evidence from the clinical trial conducted by the company. Although the performance of the children who received the drug was higher than the performance of the children who did not receive it, it was not enough to pass the threshold of statistical significance. About 24 children aged 4-6 were expected to receive the drug this year, after which eight more patients were expected to join each year.

In addition to the doubt expressed by the committee regarding the effectiveness of the drug, its price – 8.75 million shekels for each patient, It is the highest among the drugs discussed in the drug basket committee ever. As one of the members of the committee said, “one more child from the plan who will be entitled to the medicine, will collapse the annual budget of his health fund”.

The Ministry of Health tried to negotiate with the company to lower the price of the drug, without success.

The drugs for Corona: a temporary solution instead of permanent funding

Corona drugs Remdesivir and-Paxlovid: funded in 2020-2022 from the dedicated Corona budgets. This winter there was a disagreement between the Ministries of Health and Finance regarding the source of funding for the drugs, and this year these came up for discussion in the basket committee for permanent funding.

The basket committee members argued in the discussions that it is not appropriate to include in the permanent basket budget medicines for the plague, which cannot be expected to be needed in the future. In the end, it was decided that instead of including the drugs in the basket budget, the financing of thePaxlovid will come from a one-time budget of the basket budget surpluses, andRemdesivir will be financed from another source by the Ministry of Finance.

Faced with this reality, the basket committee set out and worked around the clock in order to come up with recommendations that manage to balance Among the complex needs are social sensitivity and human compassion.”

According to Minister Bosso, “I am proud that despite the budgetary challenges posed by the war, we succeeded with the assistance and involvement of the Shas Chairman Rabbi Aryeh Deri To allocate an additional budget in the amount of approximately 650 million shekels to the medicine basket this year as well. This is a day with tremendous meaning for many citizens of Israel. This year, too, we are standing by the side of the patients and caregivers, and can say with great pride that the Israeli basket is one of the most extensive, advanced and best in the world.”

Director General of the Ministry of Health, Moshe Bar is a good sign: “This is a complex year for the State of Israel.

Along with treating the many wounded and providing mental support for all those who need it, we are required to continue to respond to Israelis in routine areas as well. We continue to provide Responding to patients as well as working to prevent diseases and for public health.

We guarantee availability of the most advanced technologies universally to all residents.

chairman of the committee, Prof. Dina Ben Yehuda: “I thank the Minister of Health and the Ministry of Health for the trust you have placed in me.

“The members of the committee came from a wide range of fields of knowledge and occupation – medical, managerial, economic, public and social. All of them were reflected in the committee’s considerations. Despite the differences, I felt in all the discussions that what unites us all in the decision-making process was the observance of the rules of ethics and compassion.

“I believe that we have succeeded in achieving a diverse and most advanced update to the publicly funded healthcare basket for the citizens of Israel. We have given many medicines and technologies aimed at preventing diseases, but also many medicines that provide health, relief from suffering and prolong life.

“For me, this is also a sad day for those patients for whom we were not able to include new technologies, and I have every hope that the technologies for them will be included in next year’s drug basket.”

Head of the Medical Technologies, Information and Research Division at the Ministry of Health and the head of the committee, Dr. Osnat Luxenburg: “I thank the Minister of Health Uriel Bosso, the Director General of the Ministry of Health, Moshe Bar Siman Tov, for the trust they have placed this year in the Technology Division of the Ministry of Health to lead this important and complex national process. All along the way, the patients in need of medicines and technologies stood before our eyes.

“We did the maximum possible to provide the best response, weighing between the urgent needs and the response to chronic disease states and the prevention of disease. We are sorry that it was not possible to respond to everyone, but we see it as our public mission to continue to promote the introduction of medicines and technologies into the health care basket, and already in the days These, we start the process of expanding the basket for next year.
