Until the entry into force of exclusive contracts after a public tender according to the regulations of Part 4 of the GWB, the AOK - The Lower Saxony Health Insurance Fund intends to have non-exclusive drug discount contracts for the active ingredient leuprorelin (ATC code: L02AE02) with as many market participants as possible (pharmaceutical companies or communities pharmaceutical entrepreneur) in the so-called “open house model”.
The AOK Lower Saxony will not make a selection decision and will submit an identical contract offer to every interested pharmaceutical company. In the open house model, uniform conditions apply to all participants. Contract contents, terms and access procedures are uniform - individual negotiations are generally not conducted. The contract runs for a maximum of 24 months, the earliest contract start is June 1st, 2020. All contracts end on May 31, 2022 at the latest, regardless of the date of the respective contract. An entry or a contract can be made within the 24-month period on the first of each month. There is a right of termination six weeks at the end of each month. AOK Niedersachsen reserves the right to replace the non-exclusive open-house discount contracts with exclusive discount contracts during the term of the contract. With the entry into force of exclusive discount contracts, the open house contracts are terminated in accordance with the contractual regulation, ie the open house contracts end automatically. According to the experience of AOK Lower Saxony, exclusive discount contracts generally come into force six to eight months after the publication of the relevant announcement in the supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union. The future contractors in the open-house model are asked to inform themselves regularly about these announcements in the supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union.
