From Value to Patient Care: Innovative Practices within the Managed Care Pharmacy Research Agenda
Thursday, April 1, 2021, 2-3pm ET
The most critical evidentiary gaps for the field of managed care pharmacy will be illuminated in this webinar. Cutting-edge studies in each pillar of AMCP/AMCP Foundation’s managed care pharmacy research agenda will be discussed. Key findings that relate to the following four themes will be presented:
- Real-world evidence to inform managed care pharmacy decision-making;
- Value-based models in managed care pharmacy to address total cost of care;
- Impact of benefit design or utilization management strategies on patient outcomes; and
- Impact of direct patient care services provided by managed care pharmacy on patient outcomes.
Original research will be featured, with speakers from health plans and universities building upon poster presentations from AMCP Virtual Nexus. AMCP members, researchers, and health care stakeholders are invited to register and explore the research agenda, as developed by the AMCP/AMCP Foundation Joint Research Committee.
