With price tags in the millions, gene therapies are redefining medicine—and reshaping how we negotiate access to it. For both payers and pharmaceutical companies, these breakthrough treatments present a shared challenge: how do you fund what feels priceless?

The UK government is taking a bold step toward modernizing public services by cutting red tape, integrating AI into operations, and bringing NHS England back under direct ministerial control. This reform signals a shift toward efficiency, innovation, and better patient care—one where AI-driven solutions like Lyfegen can play a pivotal role.

In an era of innovative therapies and escalating healthcare costs, drug contracting has become a cornerstone of sustainable healthcare delivery. Balancing the promise of cutting-edge treatments with financial realities poses a significant challenge for payers and pharmaceutical companies alike. In this blog, we’ll delve into how drug contracting is evolving to bridge the gap between value and cost and how Lyfegen’s solutions empower stakeholders to achieve this balance efficiently.

The first quarter of the year is a pivotal time for the pharmaceutical industry. As budgets are finalized and contracts renegotiated, Q1 sets the stage for how effectively organizations manage rebates, optimize costs, and deliver value.

Rising drug costs continue to challenge healthcare systems worldwide. In the UK, the proposed Voluntary Pricing Access Scheme (VPAG) and the NHS’s Accelerated Access Collaborative (AAC) are clear signals of the need for sustainable, transparent approaches to branded medicine pricing. These frameworks aim to control costs through 2028 while ensuring patient access to innovative treatments. Drug rebate management solutions are key to navigating these evolving frameworks. By automating complex workflows, providing real-time insights, and streamlining rebate tracking, these tools reduce administrative burdens, enhance transparency, and unlock significant cost savings.
