Bill Thx for linking this presentation .
Very important info .
CABG is a very expensive procedure and even a straight forward revascularization probably costs around $20k ( including ER , Cath lab time ) .
This makes Vascepa a VERY cost effective medicine .


Quote:

For statin-treated patients with elevated triglycerides and increased cardiovascular risk, icosapent ethyl significantly reduced first and subsequent revascularizations compared with placebo. We are aware of no other non-LDL based therapy in the statin era that has been shown to reduce CABG in a blinded, randomized trial

It is huge news and ICER needs to revisit the costs savings by reduced open heart CABG. The drug is an ICER A+ and significantly saves social overall health costs.

Every insurance provider should be forwarded this data ASAP.
