The seminar will give an overview of the Glide SDI, its benefits and pipeline of product opportunities. Data will be presented demonstrating the utility of the technology together with plans for the commercialization of the Glide SDI. In addition, an overview of the competitive landscape for injection technologies will be provided.

Featured Speaker:
Cyndy Nayer
Co-Founder and CEO
Center for Health Value Innovation

About the web seminar:
No matter how the reform legislation comes to pass, the ultimate outcomes must focus on health, productivity and economic improvement for the communities we serve. The Center for Health Value Innovation, through a grant from Takeda Pharmaceuticals, has prepared an overview of the levers of value-based design and a coordinated decision matrix for companies to consider as they revise their health plans for 2010 and beyond.

Through a suite of levers focused on prevention and wellness, chronic care management and care delivery, plan sponsors of all sizes, self-insured and fully-insured, can identify plan designs, incentives and disincentives that will shift populations to better health behaviors. How the plan sponsor chooses, and what questions are asked, is detailed in a forthcoming report. This webinar will frame the decisions and timelines for dividends in their companies and their communities.

What you will learn:
• What levers will drive better engagement of the consumer, the plan sponsor and the delivery system and result in improved outcomes?
• Where do we start? What if we are fully insured and cannot get integrated data—what do we do? What if we are a public entity, or working with unions, or operating under legislative barriers—is value based design still possible?
• What are reasonable expectations? What are the timelines for achievement and key messages for the C-Suite?
• How do we work with our vendors and health plans to promote, engage, and measure the outcomes?

Complimentary Webinar Archive Available: Overcoming the Challenges of Government Pricing, Compliance Reporting and Medicaid Rebate Processing

About the web seminar:
All pharmaceutical product manufacturers who sell to various agencies of the federal government and/or who participate in Medicaid, 340B, Medicare or other public sector reimbursement programs face significant requirements and challenges with respect to their government-mandated pricing calculations and compliance reporting processes. Huge penalties and fines can be levied for miscalculating or incorrectly applying the various government price types to government-contracted sales and/or for compliance reporting mistakes.

The Seminar will address the complexities and challenges associated with automating Government Pricing and Medicaid Rebate system(s) as well as the pros and cons of using a packaged-software approach versus a custom-development approach. An overview of a leading-edge enterprise solution, developed as a fully-integrated component of the SAP® Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System, will be presented, accompanied by a live software demonstration and followed by a Question & Answer discussion of the issues.

What you will learn:
• An appreciation of the historical and legal background and context for the government-mandated price calculations and compliance reporting requirements;
• An understanding of the various price types that must be calculated, used in sales transaction processing and reported under each corresponding government program;
• Why automating and managing these processes using a packaged solution, based upon a fully-integrated enterprise architecture, is the lowest risk and lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) approach;

About the speaker:

Sanjay Shah, C.P.A., is the President/CEO and Chief Solution Architect of Vistex, Inc., a global SAP Software Solution Partner.

Prior to founding Vistex, Mr. Shah spent several years as a Platinum Consultant in SAP America’s Professional Services Organization and in SAP AG’s Product Development Organization.
