About Steve Forster

I advise global pharmaceutical manufacturers, health systems, pharmacies, market entrants, and investors on pharmaceutical drug pricing, government price reporting, and reimbursement. With in-house experience at global pharmaceutical companies, I combine extensive regulatory insight with deep industry knowledge to support pharmaceutical clients at all stages of a product lifecycle. Clients seek advice on price reporting and other compliance obligations related to participation in Medicaid, Medicare, the 340B Drug Pricing Program, Veterans Affairs, and related state price transparency reporting obligations. Certification and submission of accurate price reporting metrics are critical to program compliance and securing reimbursement, and clients regularly seek guidance in connection with reporting AMP (average manufacturer price) and Best Price under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, ASP (average sales price) under Medicare Part B, and 340B Drug Pricing Program requirements. My practice also covers the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the False Claims Act, and non-IP-related litigation and government inquiries.
