Moderator: Kristen Migliaccio-Walle, BS, Director, Global HEOR, Xcenda

Panelists:
Surya Singh, MD, President Singh Healthcare Advisors; Douglas S. Burgoyne, PharmD, FAMCP, Principal at Cooperative Benefits Group and was the General Market Manager & SVP of Product Development at MagellanRx Management; Rena M. Conti, PhD, is an Associate Professor, Department of Markets, Public Policy and Law Questrom School of Business, Boston University


 

In an era where value assessment frameworks (VAFs) are formally being adopted and impacting coverage, pricing and reimbursement decisions, we examine recent high profile cases where specific VAFs are being utilized and discuss their impact on the broader trend toward formal adoption of VAF recommendations in the United States.

This symposium will also review recent payer trends and will provide perspective from payer decision-makers on their own experiences incorporating "value" into coverage determination.

 

Have immediate needs to evaluate how ICER and other VAFs may impact your product portfolio?
