an annuity model that spreads that payment over a number of years to lessen the costdensity burden on payers; and a pay-forperformance, risk-sharing model that tracks patient outcomes and rewards manufacturers for maintaining patients’ health over a period of time. Each of these schemes is likely to be used, depending on the specific attributes of any one therapy and specific negotiations between drug manufacturers and payers. Rapid progress in the clinic may speed up such decisions. Bluebird’s…
