U.S. Market access strategy at the clinical stage for all companies considering a launch: A three-part series

The complexity of the U.S. market access landscape means that proving safety and efficacy is no longer a guarantee of commercial success. This three-part series will provide you with the basics of government and commercial payer rules, walk through hypotheticals that bring those rules to life, and prepare you for the market’s evolving focus on value-delivery.

At the end of the series, you will understand why your market access strategy can and should start before the initiation of your Phase IIIs, have identified early-stage steps to de-risk those variables with the potential to constrain market access later, and why you should be prepared for investors to ask you these same questions. This series will benefit any company new to the U.S. market, or looking to launch in the U.S.

Hogan Lovells is a proud sponsor of The Demy-Colton Virtual Salon Series.

Part One | Wednesday, 20 April – 11:00AM-12:15PM (ET), including Q&A

The Foundation: The Basics of Market Access and Why They Matter Before Phase IIIs

This first session will provide a foundation in the government and commercial payer landscape in relation to coverage, reimbursement, and pricing, and how those considerations can have a real-time impact on commercialization strategy. While there are a number of straightforward business considerations relevant to commercialization, the focus of this discussion will be legal and policy considerations, which typically are less readily known to biotechs at this earlier stage of drug development.
