Cell & Gene Therapies (CGT) offer potentially curative treatment to patients with chronic and hereditary conditions but carry high price tags. One proposal to overcome such financing challenges is to create a national risk pool.
The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information on the application of value-based contracts (VBCs) for insulin pricing initiatives. The shift in payment models is expanding beyond the delivery of health care services to encompass models of compensation between payers and biopharmaceutical manufacturers. VBCs have emerged as a mechanism that payers may use to better align their contracting structures with broader changes in the health care system. Our comments are applicable to all VBCs in general, not to a specific product. Where relevant we make note of application for diabetes.
AMCP offers a wide variety of educational opportunities, from events and webinars to online training.
