Understanding AMCP and ICER Dossiers for Healthcare Pricing & Reimbursement in the USA: A Comprehensive Overview
The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) Format for Formulary Submissions (AMCP Format) is a framework that provides guidance to pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturers on the development of dossiers for formulary and coverage consideration. The AMCP Format is designed to be comprehensive and considers all sources of information that are relevant to formulary decision-making by health care decision makers (HCDMs).
Justin Stindt Consultants is an agency specialized in AMCP dossiers. Our international and United-States experienced team of Consultants and Experts will help you to articulate the added benefit of your product in the AMCP dossier.
Crafting Comprehensive Dossiers for HCDMs: Product Profiles, Clinical Evidence, and Economic Analysis for Informed Drug Formulary Decisions
The dossier itself is a comprehensive document that provides all of the information that HCDMs need to make a formulary and coverage decision for a new drug or biologic. The dossier is typically divided into the following sections:
- Product Profile: This section provides an overview of the product, including its indication, dosage, safety, and efficacy.
- Clinical Evidence: This section provides a review of the clinical evidence for the product, including randomized controlled trials, observational studies, and real-world data.
- Economic Analysis: This section provides an economic evaluation of the product, including a cost-effectiveness analysis and a budget impact analysis.
- Additional Information: This section provides any additional information that is relevant to formulary decision-making, such as patient-reported outcomes, pharmacovigilance data, and payer-specific information.
Types of AMCP Dossiers: unapproved product dossiers, approved product dossiers, and unapproved use dossiers
The AMCP Format defines three types of dossiers: unapproved product dossiers, approved product dossiers, and unapproved use dossiers. This differentiation is necessary because the information requirements for each type of dossier are different and because it allows HCDMs to make informed decisions about whether or not to cover a product for a particular indication. For example, an HCDM may be more likely to cover an unapproved product for a serious or life-threatening condition, even if the product has not yet been approved by the FDA.
Dossier Type | Information Requirements | Purpose |
---|---|---|
Unapproved Product Dossier | Safety, efficacy, and potential clinical utility | To convey details about a product not yet approved by the FDA |
Approved Product Dossier | Clinical evidence, economic evaluation, and value proposition | To share information about an FDA-approved product |
Unapproved Use Dossier | Safety, efficacy, and potential clinical utility for an unapproved use | To communicate data about an unapproved use of an approved product |
ICER and its role in US Market Access
In addition to the AMCP Dossiers, manufacturers may consider submitting documentation to the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER). ICER is an independent, non-profit research organization that conducts health technology assessments (HTAs) for payers in the United States. While ICER’s assessments do not have direct regulatory authority, they are influential in shaping discussions around drug pricing, reimbursement decisions, and market access for medicines in the United States. Insurers, pharmacy benefit managers, and other payers may consider ICER’s evaluations when making coverage and pricing decisions.
