#131: Post-COVID Partnerships Between Pharma and Integrated Delivery Networks, with Sean Brusky

Health Care Rounds

Sean Brusky, health care entrepreneur, executive advisor, strategist, and former head of health care delivery innovation at Genentech/Roche

Sean’s career has developed around a central theme: How can we innovate to help Pharma become true partners in value-based care? Over the course of 15 years in various leadership roles with Genentech/Roche, Sean has lived experience attempting to solve the problems at the core of this challenge, directly engaging key market stakeholders from the seat of one of the world’s largest integrated health care companies, focused on both innovative new medicines and novel diagnostics, and real-world data solutions.

Sean has built and led teams responsible for brand-focused marketing and sales, managed care marketing, channel contracting and engagement, integrated health system engagement, government and commercial payer engagement and, most recently, digital health partnerships and novel approaches to health care delivery. He spearheaded Genentech’s efforts to execute value-based pricing models in collaboration with health systems and group practices. He has directly initiated and executed more than 20 novel commercial and medical partnerships in the personalized medicine, digital health, and value-based contracting space.

This unique blend of business development, commercial, managed care, medical affairs, and strategy experience has contributed to Sean’s unique perspective on what is broken about the current pharmaceutical pricing, purchasing, and partnership model and how we can fix it.
