Highlights from this day
- monoisotopic — coming back after 4 months, has anything changed on reimbursement anywhere 03:57
- monoisotopic — slightly off topic but nordic pricing genuinely was higher in every comparison i have seen here, and the incomes are higher too, which people forget 06:26
- coa_or_cope — quick one a prescription from one member state is meant to be recognised in another under the cross border rules. whether the pharmacist knows that is another matter 08:27
- coa_or_cope — anyone had a german pharmacy order it in and how long did that take 08:40
i had one pharmacy in another eu country refuse a foreign prescription and one accept it, same month, same paperwork
ok so has anyone crossed a border specifically to buy it
coming back after 4 months, has anything changed on reimbursement anywhere

Reminder for monoisotopic: dose day is today. Set 8 days ago.
i keep a note of what i paid each month because the number moves and my memory of it does not

can you legally buy in one eu country and take it to another
diabetes yes weight no
that is the thing people get wrong constantly. approved and paid for are two completely different processes in the eu
Testing queue: 2 submissions open, 77 awaiting dispatch.
a member reported reimbursement under a national scheme for diabetes and flatly not for weight, and that was the pattern across several countries, ask me again in a month
has anyone found a national scheme that actually covers this
german pharmacies will order in what they do not stock. mine took three working days when i asked in 2024
a german member reported paying around 300 euros a month privately in 2024. one person, one dose, one pharmacy

you can carry a personal quantity between eu countries in practice. the rules on quantity and prescription vary and i would not rely on my reading of them
right so i order about six weeks ahead because a customs delay inside the eu still cost me 8 days once
for the archive statutory insurance in germany did not cover it for weight when i last read about it. for the diabetes indication it was a different conversation
is the price the same across pharmacies in a country or does it vary a lot
slightly off topic but nordic pricing genuinely was higher in every comparison i have seen here, and the incomes are higher too, which people forget

netherlands was reported in here at around 200 euros a month out of pocket a year or so ago, with conditions attached to any reimbursement
how are people managing when support only speaks one language and it isnt yours
a member in spain said their pharmacy price was lower than germany when they compared in 2024, and i cannot verify that, ill dig out the number
no local insurance means the pharmacy price, full stop, in every country a member has reported from

update on the earlier thing ema approval is a licence, not a payment decision. every member state decides reimbursement separately and they do not agree with each other, not advice obviously
cross border in theory
ema approval means licensed but not that anyone pays for it, is that the right way round
quick one a prescription from one member state is meant to be recognised in another under the cross border rules. whether the pharmacist knows that is another matter

nordic prices look brutal, is that real or is that just what gets reported
is carrying it in a suitcase inside the eu a problem
[edited]anyone had a german pharmacy order it in and how long did that take

*Medutest not the other one
13 days inside the eu
approval isnt reimbursement
any figure in this channel should be read as the month somebody typed it, not as the price today
a swedish member put their monthly cost at roughly double what a polish member was paying, as of last year
check the date on that
