The Road to DTx Reimbursement: Lessons from PECAN & LPPR

The French combination of temporary reimbursement during evidence development (PECAN) with a route to permanent reimbursement (LPPR) provides one of the most attractive pathways for digital therapeutics.

๐Ÿ’ก Understanding PECAN

PECAN offers Digital Health companies reimbursement for their digital health device during a defined period while they generate the required clinical evidence. This gives companies a crucial opportunity to secure early revenues.

The PECAN process is specifically designed to align with the requirements needed to transition to permanent reimbursement through the LPPR process.

โš  Challenges in Securing Reimbursement

๐Ÿšซ Unfortunately, no DTx has yet secured reimbursement in France, with four negative assessments issued by HAS for applications submitted through PECAN.

๐Ÿ“Š These results highlight the rigorous standards set by HAS and emphasize the critical need for robust clinical evidence to achieve reimbursement.

For DTx developers, understanding these challenges is crucial to refining their strategies and successfully navigating the process.
