Our Communication Services
In this special 2025 U.S. Policy Highlights edition of the Vital Health Podcast, we look back at our most important discussions on the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and its ripple effects across drug development, Medicare, and patient access. Over the past year, the biopharma industry and the broader healthcare system have undergone a period of rapid change as new rules surrounding drug pricing reshape how therapies are developed, financed, and delivered. In a landscape where policies are still being interpreted and adjusted, and where the long-term impact on innovation and access is far from certain, this episode serves as a year-end guide to what has changed and how to think about the road ahead.

Real world big data for clinical research and drug development

Claims that the IRA wouldn’t affect innovation overlooked how early-stage investors really make decisions. Our research shows the pipeline for senior-focused therapies is already narrowing.

The IRA’s 9-year cap for small molecules and 13-year cap for biologics rerouted investment away from the pills seniors rely on. We sat down with @steveusdin1 to unpack how this shift skews R&D incentives and future therapies.
