|
The NICE people, responsible for who gets what medicines through |
|
the UK's health service, have decided that Ocrevus for PPMS |
|
isn't "cost effective," and so Ocrevus will be covered for RRMS |
|
but not for PPMS in the UK unless this matter can be settled |
|
differently: |

|
The NICE people have decided to postpone their decision on |
|
whether to cover Ocrevus for PPMS in the UK, and that is good |
|
news for those with PPMS who have been hoping to be able to |
|
obtain this drug. |
