CAHC’s Campaign for Transformative Therapies (CTT) believes that encouraging outcomes-based arrangements (OBAs) for gene therapies is necessary to ensure patients can access these innovative cures.
We will work to remove the policy barriers inhibiting VBAs for gene therapies in both public and private markets.
Policy Priorities
The following laws need to be reformed to allow coordination on value-based arrangements:
- Medicaid Best Price
- Average Manufacturer Price (AMP)
- Average Sales Price (ASP)
- Anti-Kickback Statute
