Dr. Adam J. Fein, CEO of Drug Channels Institute (DCI) and the author of
Drug Channels, invites you to join him for a new video webinar:
PBMs and the Battle Over Patient Support Funds:
Accumulators, Maximizers, and Alternative Funding
This event will be broadcast live on
Friday, June 23, 2023, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. ET.
This page describes the event and explains how to purchase a registration. The webinar will be broadcast from
the Drug Channels studio in beautiful downtown Philadelphia.
This event is part of
The Drug Channels 2023 Video Webinar Series.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
As expensive specialty therapies come to dominate drug spending, pharmaceutical manufacturers are paying a growing share of patents’ out-of-pocket costs for these prescriptions. At the same time, plans and PBMs are turning to novel—and often controversial—benefit design tools that access manufacturers’ patient support spending.
Join Dr. Fein as he helps you and your team deepen your understanding of this complex subject and its crucial implications for drugmakers, payers, PBMs, and patients. During the event, Dr. Fein will cover a wide range of topics, including:
- What’s driving patients’ out-of-pocket obligations
- Trends in the value of manufacturers’ financial assistance
- Copayment offset programs vs. patient assistance programs (PAPs)
- Conventional pharmacy benefit management tactics
- The new tools that offset specialty drug costs: copay accumulators, maximizers, and alternative funding programs
- The latest market data on adoption of the new spending drug management tools
- Prescription economics of copay accumulators, maximizers, and alternative funding programs
- How PBMs profit from—and are challenged by—the new tools
- Plan sponsor perspectives
- State and federal legislation over pharmacy benefits
- Major lawsuits between manufacturers and vendors
- Outlook for specialty drug spending management
- Controversies and unresolved questions
PLUS: During the webinar, Dr. Fein will give participants an opportunity to unmute themselves and ask live questions. The webinar will last 90 minutes to accommodate audience questions.
As always, Dr. Fein will clearly distinguish his opinions and interpretations from the objective facts and data. He will draw from exclusive information found in DCI's
2023 Economic Report on U.S. Pharmacies and Pharmacy Benefit Managers.
