Efektywność współpracy uczestników łańcucha dostaw leków jest wyrażona poziomem dostępności leków w poszczególnych krajach. Macierzowy układ zależności podmiotów wpływających na zaspokojenie potrzeb konsumenta wskazuje na jakość dobieranych narzędzi polityki handlowej państwa jako determinant poziomu zdrowia obywateli. Jednocześnie, wobec tracących na znaczeniu środków taryfowych, kluczowego znaczenia dla ochrony rodzimego rynku nabierają niezharmonizowane regulacje administracyjno-prawne. Podczas gdy określenie i wprowadzenie dyrektyw jest relatywnie proste, to egzekwowanie ich realizacji na szczeblu administracyjnym wymaga skonstruowania równie efektywnych procedur wykonawczych. W przeciwnym wypadku zaspokojenie potrzeb pacjenta, czy to lekiem zagranicznym, czy też krajowym, może być utrudnione. Jakość zdrowia społeczeństwa, a zatem jego produktywność, związana jest nie tylko z poziomem rozwoju gospodarczego danego państwa, lecz także z efektywnością obowiązujących regulacji administracyjno-prawnych. Tworzona jest swoista spirala zależności, w której główną rolę zdaje się odgrywać umiejętność doboru instrumentów polityki handlowej zapewniających wysoki poziom dostępu do najnowszych farmakoterapii bez szkody dla rozwoju rodzimego przemysłu, a wręcz stymulując go.

The efficiency of cooperation between the members in a medicine supply chain is expressed by the level of accessibility of medicines in particular countries. The metrix system of dependency of the subjects having impact on fulfilling customer's needs points to the quality of the tools of trading policy selected by the state as a determiner of the ratio of well-being of its citizens. Also, due to the decreasing importance of charging measures, key significance for protecting the domestic market is attributed to not harmonized administrative and legal regulations. While it is relatively simple to draw and introduce a directive, enforcing its implementation on the administrative level requires developing equally effective executory procedures. Otherwise, fulfilling patient's needs with either foreign or domestric medicine can be impeded substantially. The quality of social health, and therefore the productiveness of a society, is not related merely to the range of economic develoment of given country, but also to the effectiveness of the administrative and legal regulations in force. A specific spiral of interdependencies is created, where the major role seems to be attributed to the skill of selecting the instruments of trading policy ensuring high level of access to state-of-the-art pharmacotherapies without a loss for the development of domestic industry, but with a provision of certain stimuli for it.
