Reforming Australia’s Health Technology Assessment (HTA) system

Medicines Australia is driving the reform of our HTA system through our Strategic Agreement with the Commonwealth. This once-in-a-generation opportunity is a critical step to improving our Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme to give Australians faster access to new treatments.

Strategic Agreement

Medicines Australia has secured a 5-year Strategic Agreement with the Federal Government, centered on earlier patient involvement and influence in the availability of new medicines in Australia.

Strengthening Australia’s clinical trials ecosystem

Australia plays a vital role in the research and development of new medicines through clinical trials. Medicines Australia partners with stakeholders to ensure Australia remains globally competitive as a research and development destination.

Ethics and compliance

Medicines Australia supports our members in maintaining the highest standards of ethical conduct. We do this through the Medicines Australia Code of Conduct and transparency reporting.
