Impact Assessment Report on "Pharmaceutical Patent-Approval Linkage System" |
|
Pursuant to the implementation of the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement, pharmaceutical patent-approval linkage system was introduced on March 15, 2015. The Korean patent-approval linkage system is composed of patent registration of pharmaceuticals, notice of application for certification, prohibition of sales and generic exclusivity. The report analyzes the direct and indirect effects of drug approval-patent linkage system on domestic pharmaceutical industry, health policy, and employment. |
