CMS' Restrictions on Alzheimer's Drugs
Manage episode 372887105 series 2401268
In this Vital Health Podcast, Duane Schulthess speaks with John Dwyer. John is a serial entrepreneur, having successfully built and sold two healthcare start-ups to 3M and Aetna. He’s now a key player in The Global CEO Initiative on Alzheimer’s Disease, and also serves an active role in the patient advocacy organization U.S. Against Alzheimer’s.
John outlines the continued controversy surrounding the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services' intransigence regarding its coverage decision on the next generation treatments for Alzheimer's disease, despite the recent FDA approval for the drug Leqembi, which includes clinical data showing a significant positive impact on patient outcomes. We also outline how the Inflation Reduction Act is changing the investment decisions for new orphan medicines, and the potential fate of recent Senate proposals such as the Smart Pricing Act.
