Time: 9:45 AM - 10:15 AM

Navigating the Impact of the IRA on Product Forecasts: What Every New Products Leader Needs to Know and Do

Industry executives agree that the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has significant potential to impact the value of biopharmaceutical assets and portfolios.  However, there is also a significant amount of uncertainty regarding the ultimate impact of the IRA and how markets will evolve over time.  The effects of the IRA are complex, differing across therapeutic categories, types of molecules, stages of development and other factors.  New product planning teams are faced with the immediate need to revisit forecasts for pipeline and inline products, as well as evaluate a variety of possible scenarios and contingencies. In this session we will:

Assess the key IRA-related factors that drive changes in forecasts
Discuss the research with payers, providers, and other stakeholders that will help inform forecasts and commercial strategies
Outline forecasting methods and practices that capture the range of risks and opportunities associated with the IRA and also provide agility and flexibility for new product planning team
