</p>
<p>
Ensuring Favorable Coverage, Coding and Payment Decisions Based on Clinical and Health Economic Evidence
</p>

February 23 - 24, 2010
<br />
San Diego, CA 
</p>
<p>
Marianne Laouri, Ph.D., Practice Leader for Health Economics and Analytic Services will be co-leading a workshop titled, &#8220;Develop a Health Economics Program Early in Your Commercialization Strategy.&#8221;
</p>
<p>
Workshop Objective:
<br />
Quantifying the overall economic benefits that your product brings to the healthcare system is an increasingly important part of positioning it for a positive coverage decision for any size company. Commercial and private payors want to understand the net benefit an innovation brings to the healthcare system and expect data that validates the ROI of using your product to be available upon request. In this workshop, explore the importance and integration of health economics early in a commercialization strategy, the development of effective health models and techniques for communicating value to payors.
