Webinars
Date:
Tuesday, Jun 27, 2023, 2-3:30pm ET

This non-promotional, sponsored webinar will review health plan best practice recommendations for targeted therapies in oncology with an impressive panel of oncology and managed care experts.

As the US Market continues to evolve, so does the complexity of payers and providers navigating best practices that ensure their members have access to high-quality, cost-effective medications. AMCP’s Market Insights Best Practice provides recommendations from our managed care members to help their peers make the best coverage and access decisions.

Oncology is seeing accelerated development of new expression-based therapy classes with the potential to deliver unprecedented improvements in patient outcomes. One class of particular interest is antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). ADCs are amongst the fastest growing drug classes in oncology, as they combine the best features of monoclonal antibodies and small molecule drugs, creating a single moiety that is highly specific and cytotoxic. Managed care and payer professionals play a central role in improving value in and access to cancer care.

In this webinar, a panel of experts discusses health plan best practices related to target therapies in oncology. Following the presentation, join the panelists for a live Q&A session.
