Market Access Trends Report Outlines Eleven Major Trends Impacting The U.S. Healthcare System
PARSIPPANY, N.J., July 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pinsonault, in conjunction with HealthLeaders-InterStudy, recently published the Market Access Trends Report, a 48-page report highlighting key trends that are changing the U.S. healthcare system.
"We touch on eleven big trends in this report, including how Medicare Star ratings offer partnership opportunities for pharma, why it's important to know the players in narrow-network health plans and how pharma fits into new reimbursement models such as shared savings and bundled payments," said Sheri Sellmeyer, Vice President, Market Analysis at HealthLeaders-InterStudy and one of the report's authors.
Key findings include:
- Healthcare and payment reform will change market access
- Insurers will continue to offer narrow-network plans and high-deductible options as a way to hold down premiums as they field products in the state exchanges
- Medicaid, because it's a growing segment of healthcare benefits, will make market access for certain drugs a challenge with stringent Rx management and tight formularies by states
- With growth in specialty drugs, payers are using multiple strategies to make sure patients are using the best drugs, that they are compliant and that they have assumed an appropriate amount of out-of-pocket expense on such drugs
