Financing and Reimbursement of Cures in the US

Medical research is making significant advances toward treatments that cure major diseases, but these treatments will often entail very high up-front costs. The FoCUS Project seeks to collaboratively address the need for new, innovative financing and reimbursement models for durable therapies in the US that ensure (1) patient access for needed treatments; (2) affordability for public and private payers; and (3) the sustainability of innovation by manufacturers. This multi-stakeholder effort unites developers, providers, regulators, patient advocacy groups, payers from all segments of the US healthcare system, and academics working in healthcare policy, financing, and reimbursement.

Learning Ecosystems Accelerator for Patient–Centered, Sustainable Innovation

LEAPS seeks to modernize how we plan, produce, and use real world evidence (RWE). We believe that a Learning Ecosystem using platform-based approaches could help to reduce knowledge uncertainties, manage behavioral and economic risk, align incentives, and reduce waste and inefficiency in the healthcare system. The use of RWE could greatly reduce knowledge uncertainties to delivering the right treatments to the right patients at the right time. By eliciting and aligning incentives for all health care stakeholders in the production of RWE, (such as new payment models not typically used in healthcare, and new ways of tracking patients and outcomes over time to implement these) and through the continuous iterative learning from the use of that evidence, we can also improve the sustainability for the system.
