5th Annual Medical Device Coverage & Reimbursement Conference
July 25-26, 2011
Chicago, Illinois
U.S.A.
Throughout the US, and in reality, the world, Medical Device manufacturers are struggling to meet increasing evidentiary requirements in order to support the coverage, reimbursement and integration of their new and existing medical technologies into standards of care. The explosion of this marketplace over the past decade has caused an unrivaled challenge within the industry as companies work with healthcare providers to exhibit the utility and value of their increasingly complex, and at times, expensive products. Healthcare reform in the US and abroad is continuously aimed at reducing overall costs, and shouldering much of this burden is the medical device industry, who is being levied with additional taxes and reduced rates of payment. Q1's 5th Annual Medical Device Coverage & Reimbursement Conference will once again provide the industry with a platform to discuss and debate the challenges faced at this critical juncture for the industry. Focusing on topics and concerns ranging from the implementation and legislation of US Healthcare Reform, to creating a global reimbursement strategy and the use of comparative effectiveness to achieve higher rates of reimbursement, this conference will be a must attend, and will build upon the annual success of this agenda. | |
