CBI, an Informa business, is the health and life sciences industry leader in providing thought leadership, actionable data, benchmarking, case studies and regulatory information through a dynamic conference platform that facilitates innovation, collaboration and elevation across the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and healthcare industries.

CBI’s proprietary and intensive market research and product feasibility testing methodology has helped CBI deliver timely and first to market content driven conferences.

CBI’s conferences, forums, summits, workshops and other events also serve to connect executives and decision-makers with technology, regulatory and consulting solutions from Fortune 500 companies, and the most cutting-edge solution providers.

CBI’s 5th Annual IDN and Bio/Pharma Partnering Summit serves as a think-tank for industry pioneers to discuss the current state of affairs and latest collaborations by showcasing novel case studies and pilot programs that enhance care continuity, examine the patient journey and improve overall patient outcomes.

Facilitating patient affordability and access to medication is one of the greatest ongoing areas of concern for pharma/biotech companies.

While this is difficult in and of itself, companies must also navigate increased efforts from health plans to limit reimbursement of high cost therapeutics. Challenges continue to arise for manufacturers including accumulator programs, state-level copay legislation, formulary exclusions, high deductible plans, changes in benefit design, NDC blocks and step therapy programs.

CBI’s Formulary, Copay and Access provides a forum for industry to convene, benchmark and gain strategies to navigate new and impending access challenges within the value-based landscape while providing valuable patient services and support including coupons, co-pays and bridge programs.
