OPEN Webinars
Webinar Series
The Center for Provider Education of the Association of Community Cancer Centers (ACCC) and ACCC’s Oncology Pharmacy Education Network (OPEN) are pleased to present a UNIQUE WEBINAR SERIES for pharmacists, financial officers, and administrators who contribute to decisions about which drugs should be used for cancer patients. These webinars explore a practical approach to "pharmacoeconomics," which offers the opportunity for the pharmacy and financial teams to move past the short-term orientation of considering only cost in deciding which drugs to purchase.
We encourage you to attend ALL three webinars, since each webinar builds on the previous and includes practical exercises.
