Partnership Forum: The market for biologic drugs in the United States is large and has the potential to play an increasingly important role in the country’s health care system — both in the treatment of disease and in the affordability of drugs. Biosimilar approval and marketing of products in the United States is at a slower pace than desired by many stakeholders. This forum helped identify key actions that could support the further development and use of biologics in the U.S. health care system.

Last week, more than 30 experts representing payers, pharmacists, integrated delivery systems, health economists and analysts, patient advocates, academicians, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and other key decision-makers in the managed care setting convened virtually for AMCP’s Partnership Forum “Biosimilars: Policy, Practice, and Post-Marketing Surveillance to Support Treatment and Coverage Decisions” to identify key actions that support the use and development of biosimilars in the U.S. health care system.
