Rising healthcare costs necessitate demonstrating value in drug therapy. Pharmacoeconomics programs, like those at M.D. Anderson and Oregon Health Sciences University, ensure optimal outcomes for pharmaceutical spending.

Area of Science:

  • Health economics
  • Pharmaceutical policy
  • Healthcare management

Background:

  • Healthcare costs are escalating, impacting service delivery infrastructure.
  • Managed care and national health plans aim to control rising drug therapy expenses.
  • Demonstrating value for money is crucial amid increasing demand and shrinking resources.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present pharmacoeconomics as a mechanism for establishing the value of drug therapy.
  • To illustrate the development of applied pharmacoeconomics programs in healthcare settings.
  • To showcase case studies from M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and Oregon Health Sciences University.

Main Methods:

  • Strategic planning process utilized for program development.
  • Case study approach examining two distinct healthcare institutions.
