Panelists discuss how IRA-driven BTK inhibitor price changes could shift payer preferences, necessitating vigilance to preserve clinical integrity in treatment selection.

Panelists discuss how the IRA’s drug pricing reforms aim to improve affordability but may influence future oncology innovation.

Panelists discuss how integrating safety and access considerations into oncology policy can create more equitable, patient-centered coverage models.

Panelists discuss how utilization management limits clinical autonomy and advocate for reforms that preserve shared, patient-centered decision-making.

Panelists discuss how payers should interpret black box warnings with clinical context to prevent unnecessary restrictions on safe, evidence-based treatments.

Panelists discuss how integrating real-world evidence into coverage frameworks can enhance decision-making and align payer policies with actual patient outcomes.

Panelists discuss how outdated coverage decisions can worsen outcomes and increase costs by delaying access to safer, evidence-supported BTK inhibitor therapies.

Panelists discuss how payer coverage restrictions often conflict with NCCN guidelines for BTK inhibitor therapies in CLL, impeding evidence-based care.

Panelists discuss how outdated coverage models lag behind oncology innovation, calling for dynamic policies that reflect evolving clinical evidence.

Panelists discuss how step edits hinder timely cancer treatment and urge policies that prioritize evidence-based access over cost-driven sequencing.

Panelists discuss how utilization management policies can delay oncology care and call for reforms that better align oversight with clinical evidence.

Panelists discuss how PBMs shape oncology access and stress the need for transparency to align financial control with clinical priorities.

Panelists discuss how digital therapeutics could address the enormous unmet need for treating negative symptoms in the 60% of patients with schizophrenia who experience them, potentially reducing health care costs and improving quality of life.

Panelists discuss how prescription digital therapeutics like Daylight show promise for treating depression and anxiety but face significant accessibility barriers due to lack of payer coverage and high out-of-pocket costs.

Panelists discuss how structured, multidisciplinary screening efforts can catch MASH earlier and prevent progression.

Panelists discuss how metabolic dysfunction drives liver injury, highlighting early recognition of the obesity–MASH connection as key to prevention.

Panelists discuss how aligning evolving payer policies with real-world oncology practice is key to sustaining timely and equitable patient access.

Panelists discuss how national policy reforms are reshaping oncology care by balancing affordability efforts with the need to preserve access and innovation.

Panelists discuss how negative symptoms like lack of motivation, social withdrawal, and impaired expression significantly impact patients’ ability to maintain relationships and employment, representing a challenging aspect of care with limited effective treatment options.

Panelists discuss how physician assistants play an essential role in addressing the critical shortage of psychiatrists, particularly in rural areas, where 55% of US counties lack a single psychiatric provider and 143 million Americans live in psychiatric shortage areas.

Oncology experts at PCOC 2025 discuss breakthrough therapies, AI-driven care, and evolving care delivery models shaping the future of oncology.

Panelists discuss how managed care organizations can leverage prescription digital therapeutics as cost-reduction tools to address quality metrics and offset financial impacts from health care policy changes while identifying education of providers about workflow impacts and value propositions as the biggest unmet need for wider adoption in mental health conditions.

Panelists discuss how insurance coverage for prescription digital therapeutics remains uneven due to uncertain reimbursement pathways, lack of awareness among health care leaders, challenges in demonstrating cost-effectiveness, provider workflow concerns, and technical barriers including coding issues and limited electronic health record integration.
