The Case for Expanding Uptake of Next-Generation Sequencing for Lung Cancer in Europe
IRA Program
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) Program is a free-to-access, fully virtual, e-learning course.
About the IRA Program
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law in 2022. It is a significant piece of legislation, with a potentially profound impact on the US health care system and drug development landscape. A sound knowledge of the technical detail of the Act is needed before we can understand what its true influence may be.
Rather than speculating on its potential impact, in this Educational Program we explain the key IRA provisions as they relate to pharmaceutical payment and coverage. We aim to promote a common factual understanding the IRA’s provisions, equipping learners with the knowledge and information needed to support informed conversation and debate on its potential impacts.
This material was produced with financial support from PhRMA. The views expressed in these presentations are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect PhRMA’s views or positions. This material does not constitute legal advice – it represents the speakers’ best read of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, Public Law 117-169, and the CMS memo entitled “Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program: Initial Memorandum, Implementation of Sections 1191-1198 [of the SSA for IPAY 2026] and Solicitation of Comments,” as of 15 March 2023.
