Impact of Value – Designing Innovative Models on Drug Costs

When: Thursday, April 21, 2016, 3:00 pm to 4:15 pm

Who: Precision’s Dana P. Goldman, PhD and Darius Lakdawalla, PhD

Where: Room 2014-2018

Value-based pricing models, also known as pay-for-performance or outcomes-based pricing, present one of the most promising models to improve quality without substantially increasing spending. Recent experience in other sectors of health care demonstrates the promise of such approaches, but also the pitfalls. To date, we have not seen much progress in the pharmaceutical sector. This session will review the benefits and risks of specific novel pricing arrangements and identify the most promising approaches for moving to pay-for-performance.
