Uncertainty and the Valuation of Precision Medicine

HTAi 2018 (June 1-5), Vancouver, BC

HTAi 2018, Vancouver, BC
Abstract summary: Precision Medicine (PM) promises to revolutionize health care and global regulatory authorities are lowering the evidentiary standards in response. This amplifies substantial uncertainty in the evidence base for these high-cost therapies. This workshop will discuss how payers can manage this uncertainty to support the realization of PM’s promise.
