ABOUT YANA SMOLITSKY

With over 25 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry, I have championed both rare disease and mass-market therapies to allow patients and physicians access to the best options to improve health outcomes. Throughout my career, I have partnered closely with HCPs and medical centers to expand knowledge of targeted disease states and position products as best-in-class therapies. Additionally, I have led launch efforts to drive awareness and acceptance of new therapies into the market. In my current role, I educate physicians and industry leaders on orphan disease therapy within the Recurrent Pericarditis (RP) market. I collaborate internally to develop strategic messaging and communicate complex information in a clear, concise fashion. I develop strategic sales initiatives to gain access to cardiology fellows and enhance exposure to RP, diagnosis and treatment. By serving as a trusted client partner, I can advise on enrollment processes and deliver added value through long-term relationships. I have guided Marketing teams to develop strategic messaging that empowers physicians to treat sooner in the disease stage. In my prior role in PAH I initiated Smart phrase project with Marketing team to assist physicians to accelerate the prior authorization processes and product need documentation Previously, I called on pulmonary, internal medicine and allergy/immunology physicians to expand market share and revenue growth for core products. I also have extensive expertise in reimbursement process for Managed Care, Medicare (A,B,C&D), Medicaid and Long Term Care, which I utilized to serve clients in multiple capacities. My sales accomplishments and position details are listed below.
