Description: Navigating the treacherous terrain of rare disease healthcare, battling copay accumulator adjusters, and fighting for fair access to life-saving treatments.

Discussion Questions:

  2. What role do drug manufacturers, Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), and insurers play in creating a more transparent and affordable healthcare system for patients with rare or expensive diseases?
  3. How can healthcare systems incorporate patient feedback and experiences into policy changes to ensure fair and equitable access to medications for individuals with high-cost conditions?
