22 What is a specialty pharmaceutical? Specialty Pharmaceuticals generally have four or more of the following characteristics Are typically high in cost ($600 or more per month) Have complex treatment regimens that require ongoing clinical monitoring and patient education Require special handling, storage or delivery Are generally derived biologically Are available in infusible, injectable or oral forms Are dispensed to treat individuals with chronic and / or rare diseases Frequently have limited or exclusive product availability and distribution Are used in therapeutic areas such as: Oncology Autoimmune / Immune Inflammatory Conditions Rare / Orphan Diseases 22
23 Manufacturers partner with both specialty distributors and traditional wholesalers to get their products to market Comparison of Traditional and Specialty Distributors Role in Supply Chain Predominan t Customers Other Customers Ownership Model Traditional Wholesalers Carry broad line of pharmaceuticals, including specialty drugs Pick, pack, and ship a majority of specialty drugs Hospitals Retail Pharmacies Specialty Pharmacies Home healthcare providers Mail Order Some traditional wholesalers own specialty distributors and specialty GPOs, and specialty pharmacies Specialty Distributors Distribute primarily specialty pharmaceuticals Offer services to providers Independent physician offices Physician-Owned Clinics Standalone Hospital Clinics Specialty Pharmacies Hospitals Specialty Pharmacies Home Healthcare providers Some specialty distributors own specialty GPOs and specialty pharmacies 23

38 Specialty Pharmaceutical Market and Characteristics Specialty Distributor Role and Customers Distributor Capabilities and Services Payer and Regulatory Influence on the Supply Chain 38
39 Payers play a pivotal role, particularly for specialty drugs and the coverage mix is changing significantly due to health reform US Health Insurance Coverage By Payer Type 2013 (Actual); Projected Source: National Health Expenditures 2013, Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services, Office of the Actuary 39
40 Payer clinical and utilization management strategies constantly evolve, with implications for site of care and supply chain 2013 Clinical & Utilization Management Strategies Commercial Plans Source: 2014 EMD Serono Specialty Digest 40
41 Observations on Buy and Bill versus External Delivery distribution models Both Buy and Bill and External Delivery have a place within the current system Both models are likely to continue to thrive as the specialty market grows Buy and bill is viewed by providers as: Offering the most efficiency and patient-centered flexibility Being particularly well-suited for specialty medications where dosage may need to be adjusted for the patient on the day of treatment External delivery can offer benefits to providers as well, particularly small providers who prefer not to bear the cost of carrying high-cost specialty medications in inventory 41
42 The 340B program has expanded significantly, and is affecting competitive dynamics among provider groups Growth of 340B Covered Entity Sites (thousands) Observations and Implications Program expansions as well as provisions in the Affordable Care Act have greatly increased the number of eligible providers Number of Covered Entities Approximately one-third of US hospitals now qualify Non-340B providers buy at market prices putting them at competitive disadvantage The trend of hospitals obtaining favorable 340B pricing has shifted some cancer care into hospitals, and away from provider offices Explosive expansion of contract pharmacy networks Years (as of April 1) The program is under increased scrutiny by the federal government via ongoing audits to ensure that 340B providers are truly eligible Source: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Office of Pharmacy Affairs, Quarterly Data 340B Drug Pricing Program Activity; RAND Corporation 42
43 REMS programs vary in complexity, and REMS Integration Initiative is underway to improve effectiveness and standardize Approved REMS Programs by Level of Complexity July drugs MG = Medication Guide CP = Communication Plan ETASU = Elements to Assure Safe Use IS = Implementation System Simple Simple Moderate Complex Complex Medication guides Specific package insert language Communication plan to disseminate safety information Dear healthcare providers letters (DHCP) Educational material packages Level 1 plus the following: Prescriber training / certification Pharmacist verification of lab test results prior to dispensing Patient monitoring Registration of prescribers Patient enrollment into Registries Patient acknowledgement forms (e.g., Acknowledgement of Risks) Level 2 plus the following: Certification and training of pharmacists and physicians Recertification and product release approval at each dispense Regular audits of prescribers and dispense locations Implementation systems Authorization codes Limited access to registered customers Note: This captures the ONLY the elements of approved REMS programs as listed by FDA.gov products may also have medication guides, which are not associated with the REMS; Includes Individual REMS and Shared System REMS 43
44 Closing Thoughts Growth in the Specialty pharmaceutical sector is expected to continue as new drugs are introduced, providing growth opportunities for specialty distributors Specialty distributors continue to provide an agile, secure supply chain which ensures that lifesaving specialty medications are properly handled and delivered to providers in a timely manner Payer pressures continue to create challenges which have implications for site of care and the supply chain Reimbursement rates have placed pressure on all providers, but particularly independent provider offices Mandating pharmacy versus medical benefit coverage for specialty drugs changes practice economics for some providers 340B entities have a competitive advantage in the oncology space, and this has contributed to a shift in site of care from provider office to hospital but Government scrutiny and Manufacturer practices could change the playing field Distributors, manufacturers and providers will monitor, plan and prepare for changes in the regulatory environment as the ACA runs through its first full year, public payer practices change, and tracablility requirements become more clear 44
