Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an increasingly serious threat to America’s public health and national security. The resources necessary to discover, develop and commercialize innovative, life-saving antimicrobials are similar to other disease areas; however, the relative return on investment is exceedingly low.
In May, I highlighted the need for an immediate paradigm shift in the antimicrobials marketplace. I specifically called out the importance of building new business models, developing novel partnerships, focusing on market strengthening strategies, and ensuring BARDA’s leadership in this effort. One such novel and exciting partnership for BARDA is that with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
