Alter the Cost of Access Trends on Your Brand Revenue

Pharmaceutical SVP/VP Market Access, VP Key Accounts, SVP Therapeutic Business Units, Brand Directors, VPs Contracting, VPs Finance:

Are you exhausted by the intensifying payer impact on the cost of brand access and its negative effect on gross-to-net brand revenue?

Stricter prior authorizations, formulary exclusions, member cost shifting, Rx deductibles, and co-pay maximizers can negatively impact year-end budget forecasts. These aggressive techniques are significantly impacting patient out-of-pocket costs, which can lead to patients avoiding drug therapy or abandoning prescriptions at the pharmacy. All brands suffer from unfulfilled prescriptions with Rx rejections and abandonment rates varying by brand. The impact is significantly growing and negatively affecting brand sales forecasts and revenue.

Patients starting new therapy abandoned 94 million prescriptions at pharmacies in 2022 with increasing frequency as cost rise. Co-pays of $75=abandonment rate of 34%.  Co-pays of $250=abandonment rate of 53%.

The result is frustration across stakeholders:

  • Patients—despair, dissatisfaction, and poor treatment outcomes

  • Providers—disruption of patient care plans and prescribing hesitancy

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