OUTCOMES-BASED CONTRACTING IN THE US Sanofi Health Alliance risedronic acidOutcomes-based contracting in the US had a stalled start in 2009, and began in earnest in 2015.Amgen, AbbVie, Novartis, and Gilead have publicly announced outcomes-based contract discussions over the past 18 months.SOURCES:eMAX Health Research

Objectives and methodsPrimary Research With Payers and Manufacturers

RESEARCH OBJECTIVESeMAX Health conducted research via a web survey with manufacturers and payers.OBJECTIVE 3Pinpoint contract structures that have greatest likelihood of successOBJECTIVE 2OBJECTIVE 1Understand top reasons why outcomes-based contracts are challenging to implementUnderstand which therapeutic categories and drug classes are important for outcomes-based contracting discussionsThe principal goal is to better understand perceptions and opinions of the current outcomes-based contracting landscape.

ABOUT THE SAMPLEThe research was conducted via an internet survey with representatives from both payers and manufacturers who had a moderate to advanced topical knowledge of outcomes-based contracting.Primary Research SampleNational and regional commercial payersn = 17Pharmaceutical Manufacturersn = 29

Representatives of pharmacy benefit managers and large pharmaceutical/biotech companies represent 42% of the experts surveyed.

Labels in pie seem unnecessarily long 30

ABOUT THE SAMPLEWithin the manufacturer cohort, we obtained insights from stakeholders in HEOR, field managed markets, and payer strategy; within the payer cohort, pharmacy and external relations were most prevalent.Manufacturer Rolesn=29Payer Rolesn=17Of the payers surveyed, nearly a quarter were pharmacy directors; of the manufacturers surveyed, HEOR, managed markets, and market access strategy were evenly represented.

resultsPrimary Research With Payers and Manufacturers

FAMILIARITYQuestion: How familiar are you with the topic of outcomes-based contracting?Three quarters of the screened respondents had a moderate or higher familiarity with the topic of outcomes-based contracting.

33

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVEQuestion: Has your organization implemented an outcomes-based contract in the past five years?All of the payers who participated had been involved in outcomes-based contracting in the past five year, while most in the manufacturer sample had not.YESNO

PLAYERSQuestion: Who has been more active in promoting the outcomes-based contracting movement?The majority of respondents, both payer and manufacturer, believe that payers are in the drivers seat.

n=17n=29

DISEASE AREASQuestion: Outcomes-based contracting arrangements are most promising in what disease area?No singular disease area was mentioned as significantly more important, however, oncology led slightly as an area of interest.

TYPES OF CONTRACTSQuestion: Which type of contract has the most/least potential for success?Both manufacturers and payers agree that clinical performance (or pay-for-performance) contracts have the most potential for success; while a capitated utilization model has the least potential for success.

n=17n=29n=17n=29

MANUFACTURER RISKQuestion: What level of financial risk do you expect manufacturers to take on in order to proceed with an outcomes-based contract?Not surprisingly, payers said that a manufacturer should assume a moderate level of financial risk.

EXCLUSIVITYQuestion: How likely is it that your organization would have future interest in an exclusivity outcomes-based contract?Payers leaned towards a the possibility of a future filled with exclusivity arrangements.

IMPLEMENTATION BARRIERSQuestion: Please rate each of the following implementation barriers. Although the corporate inertia exists to make outcomes-based contracting happen, technical difficulties present as the most challenging barrier to implementation.

Resistance to Financial RiskLeast ChallengingMost Challenging

Corporate StructureTechnical DifficultyLack of Corporate InertiaLack of Perceived Value

IMPLEMENTATION BARRIERSQuestion: What single barrier is most challenging to successful implementation of an outcomes-based contract? The sheer difficulty with the technical aspects of contract implementation ranks as the most challenging barrier to outcomes-based contact implementation.

IMPLEMENTATIONQuestion: What is the likelihood you will implement an outcomes-based contract over the following time periods?Payers more strongly than manufacturers that they would implement outcomes-based contracts in the near future.Six MonthsOne YearTwo YearsThree YearsVery UnlikelyVery Likely

KEY LEARNINGSOur research with payers and manufacturers on outcomes-based contracting yielded seven key learnings. Payers are largely responsible for the push towards outcomes-based contracting

Oncology, metabolic, cardiovascular, and CNS are four key disease areas of interest to payers

Clinical performance agreements are believed to have the highest likelihood of implementation success

Technical difficulties are largely responsible for implementation delays and failures

Manufacturers expected to take on some level of financial risk in an outcomes-based contract

Payers are open to the idea of formulary preference as part of an outcomes-based contract arrangement

Outcomes-based contracting should become more common in the next few years

CASE STUDY #2

Interferon beta-1aEMD SERONOCIGNA

Disease Area: MSImplemented: 2011AGREEMENT COMPONENTSGOALS/OUTCOMESCIGNA tracks the percentage of hospitalizations and ER visits avoided by people using EMD Serono drugCIGNA uses medical claims in order to determine whether a relapse was the cause for hospitalization and/or ER visitsCIGNA uses 2010 as a baseline, looking at data from medical, pharmacy and lab claims, and measuring members medication-possession ratio (MPR)EMD Serono provides rebates based on adherence outcomes and relapse-free patients

Because MS eventually leads to a state of disability, CIGNA helps to delay disease progression and quick accumulation of irreversible neurological damage by improving adherenceUsing experiences in MS, CIGNA extended its monitoring strategies to other conditions through the THERACARE program

Appropriate care MODELReal-world Example of an Outcomes-based Contracting Program

Large % of patients on specialty drugs do not respond but stay on therapy

APPROPRIATE CARE MODELAn appropriate care model identifies non-responders based on therapeutic response.The single greatest opportunity to reduce aggregate claim dollars in specialty is to identify patients that do not respond and take them off the drug.SOURCES: 1eMAX Health claims analysis2Adalimumab Full Prescribing Information3Hughes et al., Lancet Neurol 2008; 7: 13644Inappropriate Use

BENEFITSThe primary benefit of an appropriate care model contracting model is to improve overall health outcomes by reducing inappropriate utilization of treatment, resulting in savings to the payer.Improve and simplify health outcomes for chronic disordersSimplify health outcomes monitoring for therapyReduce duration of treatment for non-responding patientsProvide medically-defensible coverage determinationReduce specialty drug spend for non-responding patientsReduce specialty drug spend by optimizing site of care

Role of specialty pharmacyHow does specialty pharmacy fit in?

ROLE OF SPECIALTY PHARMACYSpecialty and infusion pharmacies play an important role in the patient care and monitoring aspects of outcomes-based contracting programs.In the high-cost specialty area, health plans provider networks can play an important role in outcomes-based contracting

Outcomes data must be conveyed quickly and efficiently to be actionableInfusion ProvidersInfusion pharmacies administer the drug creating an opportunity to assess patient status in real-timeRelying on claims data to review drug performance only offers retrospective price adjustment, but not a change in appropriate care and coveragePhysically at the point-of-careRoutinely interact with patients

HEALTH STATUS MONITORINGSpecialty pharmacy disease programs provide opportunity for health status monitoring.Specialty pharmacy and home infusion providers develop disease programs with routine patient touch points.

Key patient status parameters under disease programs are captured at the point of care and reside in pharmacy software

Creates a unique global picture of therapeutic impact and treatment efficacyCaptures and reports clinical profile, lab data, adverse events, medication history, insurance information, and general metrics

CONTRACTING PROGRAMSSpecialty pharmacies already reside in payer networks, allowing seamless participation in contracting programs.Payer-directed patient volume provides incentives for patient monitoring and data reporting

Pharmacies can efficiently monitor patient status through data collection tools provided under a programData Collection MethodsNurse enter data into pharmacy software which can be relayed electronically to data aggregator for use by payer and prescriberPaper SurveysEfficient tools are deployed in the field for ongoing monitoring if there is minimal training and data integration requirementsSpecialty pharmacies maintain electronic medical records for its patients - data elements can be incorporated into programs to define outcomesElectronic ApplicationMedical Records
