New Drugs and Patent Losses for
2014/2015
Their Effect on the
Pharmacy Buyer
Sherrie L. Lane PD
Learning Objectives
• Understand which new drug approvals are
targeted for 2014/2015
• List the brand name drug patent losses that
are targeted for 2014/2015
• Describe the impact new drugs and patent
losses targeted for 2014/2015 will have on the
Pharmacy’s budget
Learning Objectives Cont:
• Discuss the FDA’s implementation of a new
breakthrough category for drug approvals and
it’s budget impact
• Compare and choose different inventory
management strategies to maximize profit and
minimize cost, for new drug additions to
formulary as well as brand to generic product
conversion
Why Is This Important To A Buyer?
• Pharmaceutical costs in U.S. hospitals
(excluding Federal facilities) are projected to
increase $285 million - $1.14 billion in 2014
over the 28.5 billion spent in 2013[1]
• Your healthcare facility may have up to 20%
of its total budget allotted to the Pharmacy
Department.[1]
Why Is This Important To A Buyer?
• Of that 20% - 80% of the Pharmacy’s budget
may be attributable to medication cost [1]
• Declining reimbursement in healthcare
facilities
Why Is This Important To A Buyer?
• Demonstrates your value!
• Assists in making the case for your inclusion in
the budgeting process and a seat on the P & T
