    For brand teams, launch year has become a nightmare of denials, delays and deep discounts.

    For the one in 10 drugs tested in clinical trials that wins FDA approval, payer coverage is becoming an exception to the rule. Therapeutic drug purchases in the US are mediated largely by large national insurance companies that purchase drugs on behalf of patients and negotiate net price with drug makers as well as rationalize care.

    *The types of new products making it to the published formularies
    *Access scenarios for commercial versus Medicare
