Industry group the Biosimilars Forum recently put forth 3 policy proposals that it says could save the US healthcare system billions of dollars. The group commissioned a scoring analysis from Avalere Health, which found that these options could cut out-of-pocket costs and federal spending by $1.9 billion to $5.2 billion by 2029.
