OM DENNE EPISODE
In this first part of our series in collaboration with White & Case and BRG, Wayne chats with Bethany Hills, Partner at White & Case's New York office; Rahul Rao, Partner in White & Case's Washington, D.C., office; and John Barkett, Managing Director in BRG's Healthcare Transactions and Strategy practice. Together, they discuss FDA and product-strategy decisions that actually determine future pricing power developments; how certain factors shape market structure in ways that could attract anti-trust scrutiny; the line between lawful regulatory strategy and conduct that regulators or plaintiffs may characterize as competition-distorting; how management teams should think about government policy and product strategy differently amid intense price pressure; recurring fact patterns where companies unintentionally create anti-trust or stroke-of-the-pen risk; how recent political efforts around drug pricing may be tied to regulatory strategies from manufacturers; how competition authorities and deal-makers now assess FDA-derived barriers to entry in pharma and biotech; "pricing power risk" at the development stage; developments in DTC advertising; and much more.
This episode and the rest of our series do not include the usual Headlines and Resources Links segments.
