• Government Pricing and gross-to-net modernization. Rebuild the Government Pricing calculation and gross-to-net estimation stack Medicaid, Federal, Medicare ASP and the Anaplan gross-to-net model for accuracy, transparency, auditability and speed of close.

• Contract and offer automation, and AI-enabled operations.
