Ulcerative colitis (UC) affects around three million people in the United States. Delays in treatment coverage approval, costs of managing the disease, and uncertainties around new treatment options significantly impact how well patients react to treatment, and short- and long-term outcomes. Waiting too long to start treatment not only raises the chances of serious complications, but also leads to more doctor visits and higher costs. Managed care professionals find themselves in the middle of this friction, and prompt access to treatment relies on understanding of the latest data for proper positioning of therapies on formulary. As new treatments emerge, it is essential to determine which treatments are preferred based on safety and efficacy data that prove clinical significance and drive decisions for patient coverage. In this CME Outfitters OnDemand educational symposium led by a multi-disciplinary panel of UC experts, clinicians will learn about the changes happening in the UC treatment landscape, which treatments may offer patients with UC a higher quality of life, and which UC treatments have significant long-term benefit, thus optimizing access to the best treatments available to patients in different stages of disease.
