Decisions we make about our health are critically important, and yet as
patients and consumers, we are often ill informed. A variety of well-meaning
third parties ¿ providers, payers, pharmacists, and politicians (among others)
¿ influence our access to drugs and the price we pay for them. This course will
explore the complex variety of transactions that takes place between the
development and manufacturing of a pharmaceutical product and financial
mechanisms that influence the payer, provider, and the patient, including the
following:
-
Pharmaceutical pricing models
-
Innovative contracting
-
Reimbursement and coding
-
Cause and effect of patient cost offsets
This course cannot be used as an elective towards the Marketing
concentration.
