Pharmacy benefits managers, patients, and physicians are credited with having the most influence in terms of U.S. biosimilar market access. While these stakeholders are critical pieces of the puzzle, the employer, health system, and GPO are often overlooked influencers in educating about biosimilars and improving uptake. This session will examine the tools each of these stakeholders have at their disposal to overcome systemic barriers individually and collectively to promote greater biosimilar access.

Learning Objective : At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
  • Recognize the biosimilar education and uptake efforts occurring at the employer, health system, and GPO/payer levels
  • Identify and assess barriers to biosimilar access within the healthcare value chain
  • Evaluate new collaborative strategies to overcome systemic healthcare barriers and improve biosimilar access
