 Overview

The high and extreme variable prices of medicines in the Philippines impact
on access to effective, efficient and equitable health care. In 2009, a study
conducted by Health Action International revealed that there was extreme variability
in the procurement prices of essential medicines across the national and local public
health facilities in the country. On average, originator brands and generic
equivalents were procured almost 16 times and 3 times higher, respectively,
compared to prices available on the international market.1

The DOH-Central Bids and Awards Committee (DOH-COBAC) and DOH

Hospitals were shown to have more efficient procurement prices compared to
provincial and municipal health facilities, thus leading to variability in access to
essential medicines across the Philippines.

Republic Act(RA) 9502 or the Universally Accessible Cheaper and Quality

Medicines Act of 2008 gave the DOH instruments to monitor and regulate the prices
of drugs and medicines to protect consumers and the public procuring entities from
excessive mark-ups applied to prices of medicines resulting from information
asymmetry and the lack of effective market competition.

To address these issues, the DOH Pharmaceutical Division established a

Drug Price Reference Index (DPRI) for all essential medicines to guide all national
and local government health facilities in the efficient sourcing of pharmaceutical
products in the public sector.

What is the Drug Price Reference Index (DPRI)?

The DPRI lists the ceiling prices of essential medicines for government
bidding and procurement set by the DOH for all National and Local Government
Health Facilities and Government Agencies. Winning bid prices of essential
medicines within the DPRI ceiling reflect efficient and effective procurement in the
government. Their transparency and enforcement ensure consumer access to
medicines and protection from excessive price mark-ups on medicines.

1 Douglas B, Tisocki K (2009) Public Procurement Prices of Medicines in the Philippines. Health Action International.
The data coming from reputable suppliers are only considered in the database which means that they should be licensed by the
Philippine Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and have certificate of Good Manufacturing Practice issued by the FDA.

2020 DPRI|Eighth Edition P a g e 2 | 44

 It aims to improve the efficiency and good governance in the pricing and
procurement of medicines in the public sector through establishing a transparent
and publicly available reference price for affordable and quality medicines. It also
aims to guide the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PHIC) in setting
reimbursement caps for medicines both for inpatient and outpatient services.

The DPRI only reflects the acquisition costs including landed cost,
packaging, drug content, quality assurance, manufacturing overheads and Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) fees. The DPRI excludes other costs such as pharmacy
services, preparation and storage fees, and other reasonable pharmacy mark-ups,
which are now being evaluated by the DOH.

Who should use the DPRI?

All government entities should be guided by the DPRI when procuring

medicines. It shall be applied to all forms of procurement such as public bidding,
direct contracting, shopping, negotiated procurement, emergency
procurement and consignment to ensure that the government achieves the best
value for money in sourcing essential medicines.

What are the sources of Price Data?

The DPRI is computed based on the prevailing tender prices of the previous
year (2019) reflected in the actual Purchase Orders (POs) submitted by the DOH
Retained Hospitals, Centers for Health Development (CHDs), Central Office Bids
and Awards Committee (COBAC) and Philippine Pharma Procurement Inc. (PPPI)
to the DOH.

How the Drug Price Reference Index (DPRI) determined?

The reference price is set at the Median or the 50th percentile across the
range of prevailing tender prices of essential medicines for each preparation and
strength. However, for drugs and medicines with two entries, for patented drugs and
medicines and with limited competition the reference price was set to lowest. Health
facilities may add an allowable margin up to 10% to account for the inflation.

2020 DPRI|Eighth Edition P a g e 3 | 44

How often is the DPRI updated?

The DPRI is updated annually. All DOH hospitals and CHDs submit a copy
of their latest Purchase Orders to the DOH Pharmaceutical Division for annual
collection and analysis of price data. The updated DPRI is based on the procurement
price data of medicines from the previous year.

Who can use the Maximum Price Range use in the Calculation of DPRI?

Only area under the Geographically Isolated and Disadvantaged Areas

(GIDA) can use the maximum price range use in the calculation of DPRI. The list of
GIDA shall be based on the updated list from the DOH-Bureau of Local Health
Systems and Development (BLHSD)

How to set the ABC of medicines not included in this edition?

In case where the latest DPRI published has no reference price available for
certain essential medicines, government health facilities and agencies may do any
of the following options in compliance with the Implementing Rules and Regulations
(IRR) of Republic Act (RA) 9184 or the Government Procurement Act:

 The facility may utilize the previous year’s awarded price as an approved
budget for the contract (ABC).
 The procuring entity may conduct a market survey and use the cheapest
price in the market.

Occurrence of Bid Failure

In case of failed biddings, provision of RA 9184 and its IRR shall be applied.
All procuring entities are advised to submit the list of medicines that resulted in bid
failure to the DOH-PD. The report should comply the template provided by DOH-PD
which can be downloaded at their website at www.dpri.doh.gov.ph.
