title: [Assessment of the high cost drug program on an example of the interferon treatment of multiple sclerosis].
abstract: Currently in Russia, there is a rather complicated situation with the distribution of expensive disease modifying drugs (DMD) purchased by the state for treatment of patients with multiple sclerosis. In this regard, it is necessary to carry out a serious organizational work in the direction of assessment of equivalence of biosimilars and original drugs concerning, first of all, efficacy and safety. Also, there is a problem of the replacement of one biosimilar by another in connection with organizational problems of shipping DMD to country regions. We present the results of the sociological research on the assessment of expensive drug provision by patients. The research has been carried out in 35 regions of the country. Based on these results, a strategy of the development of the program of provision with DMD should be developed all over the country.
