Additional Information
The Estonian healthcare system is currently being transformed from a state-controlled hospital-based system to a decentralised Western European-style model. The healthcare sector has been undergoing extensive restructuring since 2000 when the government announced its major reform plan, the Estonia Health Project 2015. The pharmaceutical industry has also undergone modernisation in recent years, in order to bring domestic standards in line with international norms. This has been a costly process, compounded by weak external demand.
Estonia is one of the ten countries that joined the European Union in 2004, and as a result changes have been made to pharmaceutical legislation, harmonising manufacturing and marketing operations with those in the EU. This region is important to the Estonian pharmaceutical industry, because in 2006, the EU-25 supplied 97.4% of imports, which make up the majority of the market. Reliance on imports should decrease in the future however, as domestic production activity is improving, manufacturers are required to meet GMP standards and multinational presence is increasing.
