Third-Party Care Pathways Gain Steam as Cancer Costs Rise

With the costs of treating cancer patients rising ever higher, payers and providers are increasingly turning to third-party pathways — or treatment protocols designed to provide the optimal therapy regimens — to improve outcomes and reduce excess costs. But not all pathways are created equal, and it’s crucial for oncology drug manufacturers to understand their nuances if they want to ensure their therapies are able to reach the most patients.

Those are the main takeaways from a recent “Meet the Expert” webinar from MMIT, AIS Health’s parent company. “It’s really key to get optimal placement of a brand on a pathway to ensure that patients can have access to these lifesaving therapies,” said Yana Faykina, senior consultant, advisory services at MMIT.
