Cost-efficiency is an important factor in the process of improving access to essential medicines and medical supplies.
IDA Foundation uses its buying power to negotiate lower prices and supplies generic medicines when possible.
In line with WHO policies, we believe that the use of quality assured generic medicines is key in improving the affordability of medicines.

Product prices vary according to changing cost of raw materials. Nevertheless, we aim to be as transparent as possible in our pricing. Therefore we publish a Price Indicator on a regular basis.
This Price Indicator includes prices of essential medicines, medical supplies, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria related products and emergency response kits. IDA Foundation Price Indicator has become a global reference for customers and third parties.
