Continuing the Conversation…Seeking Solutions
Thursday, October 11, 2018 | Amicus Therapeutics, Cranbury, NJ
Event closed to media.
BioNJ will host its Third Annual Beyond Value Frameworks Workshop on October 11 at Amicus Therapeutics bringing together Patients, industry, payers, academia and government to discuss and contribute to the development of new platforms that will provide Patients with access to the right medicines at the right time at affordable out-of-pocket costs.
Designed for individuals responsible for pricing, policy, market access and reimbursement, attendees will learn how to become engaged and influential regarding framework decisions, to gather tools and information to be better able to challenge value assessments, to measure Patient-centered value and to learn about new analytic computational platforms that can demonstrate and calculate drug value.
Join in this important conversation. Your voice matters. If you are responsible for pricing, policy, market access or reimbursement, you need to be here!

As a result, biopharma companies are beginning to proactively work with healthcare payers on specially designed programs ensuring that patients have access to the therapies they need without deductibles, co-pays and co-insurance. During this interactive session, you’ll hear real-life examples and case studies on what’s worked, what hasn’t and lessons learned. |

In particular, there are barriers limiting the development and use of patient-level evidence to measure and predict outcomes. As a result, public policy and coverage decisions are still being made on a population-wide basis. Our panel will discuss what those barriers are and how biotech companies, patients, providers and payors can overcome them. |
