Paying for Cures Workshop at MIT
About this Event
Durable, potentially curative therapies for genetic disorders and cancer have arrived. Short—even single dose—treatment regimens yield lasting health benefits, but large single payments will challenge the current reimbursement system. Policy, regulations, and business operations need to evolve to enable emerging solutions.
This intensive 1-day workshop at MIT will include:
- An overview of cell and gene therapies’ unique and challenging characteristics
- Insights on the financial issues and impacts of performance-based agreements for new therapies
- A discussion of evolving policy and legistative changes
- Interaction with sector thought leaders and MIT researchers
This interactive workshop is ideal for:
- Healthcare policy consultants and analysts
- Industry / trade group strategists
- Academic researchers
- Patient advocates
