US Payers’ Perspectives on Digital Therapeutics

The exponential growth of the digital health products industry has brought an array of options for helping patients to prevent, manage and treat medical conditions. A subset of this trend, digital therapeutics, can be used independently or along with medications, devices, or other therapies across a variety of disease states. They also can capture real world data on usage, engagement, disease progression, healthcare outcomes and therapeutic efficiency.

With the increasing adoption of digital tools and the ongoing need to monitor both healthcare costs and the rising incidence in chronic diseases, it is worth asking: Are US payers prepared to evaluate and determine coverage for these products?

Join this free webinar for an overview of the digital health landscape and details from ICON’s in-depth interviews with health plan and pharmacy benefit manager leaders. Attendees will gain insights on what to expect from US payers and how digital health manufacturers can be successful in this rapidly expanding market.
