Regulatory Disruption and Distribution Evolution – Redefining Patient Access in the Modern Hub

Simone Colgan Dunlap and Nick Meza will be speaking at the 2026 Hub and Specialty Pharmacy Models East Congress on March 19. Their presentation titled, "Regulatory Disruption and Distribution Evolution – Redefining Patient Access in the Modern Hub," will examine the evolving regulatory environment impacting patient assistance programs and explore the operational implications of emerging alternative distribution models. Attendees will gain insights into the dramatic rise of direct-to-consumer, direct-to-employer and cash buy programs, including recent developments like TrumpRx, and understand how these shifts are fundamentally changing patient access strategies. The discussion will focus on practical implementation considerations and compliance requirements that hub operations must navigate in this rapidly changing landscape.
