Product Details
With an unprecedented number of new, potentially transformative health technologies coming to market in the U.S., there are growing calls to better align the evidence generation that supports regulatory submission and the payment effort that informs patient use and access. Understand the intersection of healthcare innovation and FDA regulation and you’ll have what you need to come out on top of this revolution.
Who better than to bring you up to speed on the latest developments and trends in this arena than a former FDA Commissioner? Mark McClellan, MD, PhD is currently the Robert J. Margolis Professor of Business, Medicine and Health Policy, and founding Director of the Duke-Margolis Center for Health Policy at Duke University. Dr. McClellan will highlight emerging areas of policy work related to biomedical innovation, medical product regulation and concepts of value — all in service of describing how you can increasingly provide the right treatments and interventions to the right patients at the right time.
Dr. McClellan will provide an overview of value-based healthcare payment and delivery reform concepts and their increasing linkages to the ways in which the U.S. supports faster, more-efficient biomedical innovation.
And he will discuss remaining challenges in the access, coverage and payment processes that, if overcome, could increase the value and improved patient outcomes associated with the use of game-changing health technologies.
Presentation Takeaways:
- An overview of emerging trends in medical product development, including efforts to further improve development and regulatory review
- The overall landscape of value-based payment and delivery reforms, and what you must know about their growing linkages to medical product development
- Increasing concerns associated with the price for transformative medical technologies like gene and cell therapies, and how these anticipated prices are driving stakeholders to explore new types of contract mechanisms and alternative payment models
- Insight into new policy development areas emerging around challenges with payer coding, coverage and payment processes for innovative medical technologies
- The growing need for a real-world data and evidence-development infrastructure and its anticipated role in improving your development of medical products as well as regulation and care delivery
To rise to the top in this changing landscape of transformative health technologies, you must listen to Dr. McClellan explain the intersection of healthcare innovation and FDA regulation.
