Country Reports Disclaimer
Rx/Reimbursement adult incontinence
To qualify for reimbursement, typically a note from a physician is required (a “prescription”) indicating that the patient is in need of incontinence supplies. Depending on the local system in place, supplies are then either shipped directly to consumer home by a designated service or a consumer has to pick up products at a pharmacy. Please be advised that services and routes to consumers can vary even within the same country and vary by state/region. Some countries provide reimbursement through income tax deductions. If this is the case in your market, we EXCLUDE this type of reimbursement from our Rx/Reimbursement coverage as it would be impossible to track. Additionally, consumers would have already purchased the products in retail before claiming tax deductions, and as such the products have already been counted as retail sales. The same logic applies to institutional sales. If a nursing home purchased adult incontinence products from a distributor/manufacturer for distribution to its patients/residents, these products would be included as AFH adult incontinence in our coverage, even though sometimes patients might claim healthcare deductions for costs of stay at a nursing home.
