For these and other reasons, it is currently unclear how the IRA will be effectuated, and while the impact of the IRA on the pharmaceutical industry cannot yet be fully determined, it is likely to be significant.

Most recently, in August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) was signed into law… Lower negotiated prices for AUSTEDO and AUSTEDO XR may increase competitive pressures on INGREZZA, including heightened pricing pressure and potential adverse effects on formulary coverage.

On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) into law, which, among other things, extends enhanced subsidies for individuals purchasing health insurance coverage in ACA marketplaces through plan year 2025. It is unclear how other healthcare reform measures of the Trump administration or other efforts, if any, to challenge, repeal or replace the ACA, will impact our business.

We expect that additional changes to the Affordable Care Act, the Medicare and Medicaid programs, changes in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 that allow the federal government to directly negotiate drug prices, and changes stemming from other healthcare reform measures, including any new regulatory measures proposed or implemented by the Trump Administration, especially with regard to healthcare access and cost, as well as other legislation in individual states, could have a material adverse effect on the healthcare industry.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, or the IRA, for example, includes several provisions that may impact our business to varying degrees, including provisions that reduce the out-of-pocket spending cap for Medicare Part D beneficiaries to $2,000 starting in 2025, eliminating the prescription drug coverage gap; impose new manufacturer financial liability on certain drugs under Medicare Part D, allow the U.S. government to negotiate Medicare Part B and Part D price caps for certain high-cost drugs and biologics without generic or biosimilar competition; require companies to pay rebates to Medicare for certain drug prices that increase faster than inflation; and delay until January 1, 2032 the implementation of an HHS rebate rule that would have limited the fees that pharmacy benefit managers can charge

Prior to January 1, 2025, the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit required manufacturers to fund approximately 70% of the Medicare Part D insurance coverage gap for prescription drugs sold to eligible patients for applicable drugs. We account for the Medicare Part D coverage gap using a point of sale model. Estimates for expected Medicare Part D rebates are based, in part, on historical activity and, where available, actual and pending prescriptions when we have validated the insurance benefits.

As Lundbeck enacts a major business overhaul across its European and international operations, more than 600 employees of the Danish company will be left without jobs. Lundbeck has around 5,700 employees total worldwide, meaning that the restructuring could represent a more than 10% reduction in headcount.

Layoffs
North Chesterfield, VA
1,001-5,000 employees
Indivior is letting go of an undisclosed number of employees as it sets in motion its “Indivior Action Agenda,” a sweeping and multi-year strategic initiative to “maximize the potential” of its business. The layoffs are expected to cost Indivior some $16 million to $19 million in one-time severance payments. Aside from the workforce reduction, Indivior will also consolidate and reduce its real estate assets, for which it expects to incur $15 million to $22 million in one-time costs. The company is also looking for “strategic alternatives” for its opioid use disorder therapy Opvee, though it did not specify what options it is currently exploring.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was signed into law, which among other things, extends enhanced subsidies for individuals purchasing health insurance coverage in Affordable Care Act marketplaces through plan year 2025. The IRA also eliminates the “donut hole” under the Medicare Part D program beginning in 2025 by significantly lowering the beneficiary maximum out-of-pocket cost and creating a new manufacturer discount program. It is possible that the Affordable Care Act will be subject to judicial or Congressional challenges and amendments in the future. It is unclear how any such challenges and the healthcare reform measures of the second Trump administration will impact the Affordable Care Act and our business.
