Despite advances, patient engagement (PE) in post-approval access decisions remains limited, complex, and unclear. This session examines how patients can offer value-based insights and explores pathways to strengthen PE in product access decisions.

Learning Objective : Identify existing opportunities to incorporate patient input into access determinations; Recognize patient-contributed information and data that could broaden the evidentiary base for CMS and other payers; Discuss the resources and frameworks needed for CMS to systematically and scientifically engage with patient communities.
