ISSUE: Feasibility and Desirability of Indication Based Pricing (IBP)
OVERVIEW: With this panel, we want to ignite a sound debate on whether IBP can be implemented as an alternative pricing mechanism. Also, we want to discuss whether IBP could be beneficial for society and, if so, under which conditions it may be.
We bring together three views: that of someone who believes it may work, that of someone who is not convinced and that of someone knowledgeable of the payer's perspective. This discussion promises to be well attended and of high interest for all stakeholders: payers, industry, patients and policy makers.Conference/Value in Health Info
