If the price of a medicinal product is higher than the reference price, the patient generally pays the difference to the reference price or receives a therapeutically comparable medicinal product (without additional contribution).

The current (and prior) lists of reference prices for medicinal products and additional information can be downloaded from the "Downloadcenter" on the German website.
