Her expertise spans formulary and utilization management, value-based contracting, Medicare strategy, and cross-functional market access planning.
Michelle's ability to connect clinical, financial, and operational perspectives will further strengthen Petauri's Access Customer Experience (ACE) team and its ability to develop practical solutions that create value for patients, payers, and manufacturers alike. Her payer expertise, strategic mindset, and collaborative approach will help clients overcome access barriers and deliver meaningful value to the patients they serve.
