The New World of Value-Based Healthcare In a perfect world payers would not buy drugs and pharma would not sell drugs. They would buy and sell what the drugs do; improve health outcomes. 2
The New World of Value-Based Healthcare What if we could measure the impact of medicines by the improved outcomes they enable? What if we could allocate the deployment and measurement of commercialization efforts by these outcomes? 3
Pharma: Greater focus on the patient & enhancing QOL We aspire to improve the health and wellness of people around the world Merck Our mission is to help people do more, feel better, live longer GSK Transforming the lives of patients biogen idec Our mission is to care and cure Novartis We re passionate about improving quality of life and healthcare globally Teva 4
Value-based Commercial Model Framework An Outcomes-Based Commercial Model Built Around Five Key Questions 1 Real world data & analytics help us understand which treatments actually are prescribed to patients defined by: Condition being treated Demographics (age, sex) Clinical characteristics Line of use in treatment cascade What Drugs Are Prescribed? What Are the Prescribing Behaviors? 3 Treatment guidelines & comparative effectiveness research (CER) help us understand which treatments should be prescribed to patients defined by: Condition being treated Demographics (age, sex) Clinical characteristics Line of use in treatment cascade What Drugs Should Be Prescribed? How to Alter Prescribing Behavior? 5 RWD collected on changes in prescribing patterns & patient outcomes Via EMR systems & registries Changes assessed & fed into performance management system Linked to changes in market share How to Assess Change & Measure Outcomes? 2 Real world data & analytics help us gain deeper insights on how physicians prescribing behaviors vary: By patient characteristics (clinical, demographic) By specialty (primary care, specialist) By geography 4 Real world data, analytics & IT combine to create tools to inform prescribing decisions, improve prescribing behavior Predictive modeling of outcomes based on current prescribing behavior Simulation of improved outcomes based on changed prescribing behavior 5

Case Study: Atrial Fibrillation 9
Case study Issue Understand if treatment selection in the A-Fib market is optimal based on certain patient risk factors Opportunity Identify and prioritize geographies where A-Fib treatment selection is suboptimal Action Deploy specific field-based resources and messaging within select geographies to drive the clinical benefits and value of newer therapy options on these patient populations 10

Contraindication for warfarin: (artificial heart valves, significant valve disease, severe renal failure, advanced liver disease, pregnancy) Clinical measures (e.g., BP, BMI, lipids) INR, prothrombin, and platelet levels Current and past therapies for anticoagulation, antihypertension, antiplatelet, and lipid-lowering: start/stop dates, cost/fill, compliance Current and past therapies for rate and rhythm control AF outcomes: Ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack Anticoagulation side effects: Hemorrhage Patient characteristics and demographics (including state of residence), Provider specialty and decile Current product share at 3 digit zip level Concentration of top deciles at 3 digit zip level Time since AF diagnosis Other comorbidities 11

A-Fib TRx Performance by State Warfarin A-Fib State-level TRx Share ranges from 45%-92% What Are the Prescribing Behaviors? Evaluating product use by Dx from EMR data at the state and specialty level in conjunction with Rx-level claims data, we are able to estimate warfarin market share for A-Fib. Source: IMS Health, Q-EMR 15
What Are the Prescribing Behaviors? Does A-Fib treatment vary locally in NC? 9 local geographies had Warfarin use greater than the state average (65%), ranging from 67%-85% Source: IMS Health, Q-EMR 16
Are certain A-Fib patient types at higher risk? Warfarin patients are at greater risk of experiencing a bleeding or ischemic stroke event over newer therapy options. What drugs should be prescribed? Source: Q-EMR 17
A-Fib HR for Bleeding and Ischemic Stroke Events Both Xarelto and Pradaxa are superior to warfarin for reduction of bleeding risk. Pradaxa is superior to warfarin in the prevention of ischemic stroke. Ischemic Stroke 0.64** 0.94* Bleeding 0.29 0.24 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 warfarin (n=20448) Xarelto (n=2517) Pradaxa (n=4524) * Xarelto vs. warfarin Rocket AF Study HR = 0.88 (0.74 1.03) ** Pradaxa vs. warfarin RE-LY study HR = 0.65 Source: Q-EMR 18
Can future stroke event risk be reduced? Through predictive modeling, we estimate that ~30% of Warfarin A-Fib patients would benefit from an alternative therapy that would reduce their future risk of a stroke or bleed event.

Patients, Pharma & the Health System all Benefit Patient outcomes improve with less overall reported events; brand share improves across newer and safer agents, and the overall costs of healthcare are reduced with the decline of more costly ischemic stroke events.
