Mr. Robert L.

There is a timely emphasis on spurring innovation in the U.S. renal market to provide new therapies, like Triferic, that can improve patients’ lives and lower healthcare costs. Based on our progress to date, we remain optimistic that Triferic will receive the proper reimbursement soon. Our marketing and education efforts for Triferic continue, and have been well received by the dialysis community. Data reported via our drug sample program has shown positive patient outcomes and cost-saving benefits, giving us further confidence that Triferic should be widely adopted if separate reimbursement is granted.”
