AMCP Foundation/Pfizer, Inc. Oncology Internship
The Pfizer Inc., Oncology Organized Customer Field Medical Team, in partnership with AMCP Foundation, will support the new AMCP Foundation/Pfizer, Inc. Oncology Internship Program. Its goal is to develop future leaders in managed health care through activities that expose interns to population health and the application of managed care pharmacy principles via concepts such as formulary management, benefit design, medication therapy management, and adherence management focusing on oncology.
Working directly with pharmacists and other health care team members in oncology, specialty pharmacy, or related business units, interns will appreciate how managed care pharmacy principles maximize health care resources and patient care outcomes. Two student pharmacists will be selected for the internship through a nationwide selection process.
Internship Details
