Please join us for a Lunch & Learn presentation on the utilization of value assessments in determining clinical and cost effectiveness. These frameworks are used to assess the value of prescription drugs and can influence coverage, drug utilization management and reimbursement.
Hear more about how policymakers and payers rely on traditional value assessment frameworks and the need for development and use of innovative methods that are rigorous, transparent, and nondiscriminatory to better address the needs of all health care stakeholders, including patients, payers and providers.
