Program Description

How are we doing as an industry as we strive to balance evidence, access, and consistency across coverage policies?   This webinar takes a deep dive into how UM practices vary across payers and how they’ve evolved from 2017–2025. Dr. James D. Chambers, PhD, MPharm, Professor at Tufts Medicine and Center for the Evaluation of Value and Risk in Health, will examine the evidence health plans cite in drug coverage policies and assess how payer criteria align with pivotal clinical trials—using cell and gene therapies as a real‑world case study.

If you haven’t had an opportunity to hear Dr Chambers- you won’t want to miss this!  And if you have, we know you have already registered!
