What type of information has the biggest impact on formulary decisions at managed care organizations?
"Outside of efficacy, safety and cost information? Nothing else really matters; everything else kind of goes into the bucket of 'Other,' like convenience, even compliance. It is not going to cut it, unless you can monetize it - whatever that information is. Translate into cost savings, or translate into clinical superiority – which is safety and efficacy - or it's just not going to work. Everything has to go back to clinical or cost," said a veteran Pharmacy Director at a large managed care organization.
