Biosimilars Review and Report, United States
Over the next 24 months, the biosimilar industry will be entering a crucial phase in the US. Payers have played a leading role in determining whether biosimilars are covered and influencing their uptake. This session will address how payers are considering anticipated biosimilar launches for adalimumab, insulin, and ranibizumab.
Learning Objective : At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
- Describe the factors that payers may consider when deciding which adalimumab biosimilar(s) or the reference product they will place on formulary
- Recognize the benefits or risks that covering a biosimilar under the pharmacy benefit (vs the medical benefit) can pose for payers
- Assess how payers will approach potential interchangeability designations among these critical biosimilar categories
