Maximizing the potential of your generic portfolio strategy
The Inflation Reduction Act may usher in a new era of growth for generics manufacturers
The recently passed Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) may create a more attractive market for generics companies to consider innovative portfolio strategy management. During the four years before the IRA is in full effect, drugmakers may want to consider developing innovative generic drugs, as well as generic alternatives to reference products on the list of IRA-impacted drugs. Approached strategically, such efforts can help companies balance their portfolios, open new revenue streams, and better prepare for revenue cycle implications.
In this paper, we offer three considerations generic drug manufacturers should keep in mind as they evolve their portfolios to include the next generation of accessible and affordable prescription drugs:
- Value creation through portfolio management and differentiation
- Manufacturing investments for a sustainable supply chain
- Strategic scaling to drive share and margin
As you consider these insights from our life sciences team, it should become clear that, while patent expirations for blockbuster drugs are on the decline, the need for low-cost prescription drugs is more acute than ever.
