October 29 is World Psoriasis Day. It's a reminder that psoriasis is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease, and what shows up on the skin is often just the tip of the iceberg. In this episode of AMCP Unscripted on Psoriasis as a Systemic Disease, guest host Steve Kheloussi, PharmD, MBA, FAMCP, talks with Harrison Nguyen, MD, MBA, MPH, FAAD, a double board-certified dermatologist in Houston, about what that means for treatment and coverage: • Psoriatic inflammation is linked to psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, cardiovascular risk, depression, and anxiety. • Complete, durable skin clearance is now a realistic treatment goal. • Therapy choice depends on affected areas, joint risk, comorbidities, and patient preference. AMCP brings clinician perspectives like this to managed care teams to support informed formulary decisions. 🎧 Listen to the full episode. Link in the comments. How is your organization accounting for psoriasis comorbidities in formulary reviews? Sponsored by AbbVie Inc. #AMCPUnscripted #WorldPsoriasisDay #Dermatology

Patients with ESR1-mutated advanced breast cancer have a clear view of what makes treatment worthwhile. AMCP made sure that view was part of the conversation. In this episode of #AMCPUnscripted Podcast on Precision Oncology in Breast Cancer, patient advocate joined clinicians and payers on AMCP's Market Insights panel, so the findings reflect what patients live with alongside what trials measure. Guest Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, of Minnesota Oncology shares what patients said matters: - Survival paired with function, independence, and quality of life. - Less burden from repeat testing: travel, time off work, and out-of-pocket costs. - Knowing why they're testing and whether it will change treatment. 🎧 Listen to the episode.
