AMCP Submits Letter to E&C Subcommittee on Health in Support of HR 2026 – The PIE Act
The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) appreciates the opportunity to submit a letter of support for H.R. 2026 – The Pharmaceutical Information Exchange (PIE) Act of 2017 which will improve patient access to emerging medication therapies and devices by codifying a safe harbor for certain health care economic and scientific information communications between biopharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers and population health decision makers. AMCP supports the need for timelier and more proactive sharing of preapproval health care economic information (HCEI) between biopharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers and population health decision makers to enable the implementation of value-based contracts, aid in forecasting and budgeting, and expedite coverage decisions for emerging therapies, including those granted breakthrough designation. The need for this proactive communication is especially important now as the United States health care system evolves from a fee-for-service payment system to a modernized system rewarding quality, improved patient outcomes, and value.
