Drive Revenue by Increasing Rx Fulfillment Growth

Pharmaceutical vice presidents, executive directors, brand leads, marketing leads, and commercial leads:

As you mobilize 2025 strategies to drive aggressive brand growth targets, are you challenged with stretch objectives in an environment of intensifying payer impact on the cost of brand access and its negative effect on gross-to-net brand revenue? These include aggressive utilization management techniques demonstrated by stricter PAs, formulary exclusions, shifting cost to members, Rx deductibles, and co-pay maximizers. In addition, the IRA (Inflation Reduction Act) has intensified this challenging access environment on brand revenue by introducing substantial increases in discount/rebate demands and limited price flexibility.

The net effect is frustration with status quo approaches that may not yield needed brand sales results and requests from senior management to identify and implement novel solutions to achieve aggressive brand growth targets.

The collective impact of these marketplace access dynamics is significantly impacting patient out-of-pocket costs, resulting in them forgoing Rx drug therapy or abandoning a drug at the pharmacy dispensing point of service. All brands suffer from unfulfilled prescriptions with Rx rejections and abandonment rates varying by brand. The impact is significant, growing, and negatively affecting brand sales forecasts and revenue.

Rx rejections and abandonment negatively impact all stakeholders:

• Patients—Despair and dissatisfaction, forgo Rx drug therapy, poorer treatment outcomes

• Providers—Disruption of patient care plans, prescribing hesitancy, administrative time and cost

• Manufacturers—Unrealized patient access to drug innovation and reduced brand sales
