PharmaTimes Directors' Club - Overview

Next PDC meeting:

D-Day for NHS England– implications for Pharma and Patients

Friday 26 April, 2013, 12.30-4.00pm
The Kings Fund (off Cavendish Square, London, nearest tube Oxford Circus).

You are invited to book for the next PDC meeting, timed to attract input from senior members of the newly operational NHS England. This PDC meeting will explore the two important areas of medicines optimisation and patient care.

We are delighted that Dr Keith Ridge, who is responsible for the DH’s medicines optimisation strategy, and Tim Kelsey, the new NHS England national director for patients and information, will be speaking at the meeting. Both are likely to have a significant influence on the future management of medicines optimisation and patient care pathways, and patient outcomes.

Also joining us will be one of the new CCG leads, Dr Caron Morton, chair of Shropshire CCG who will give us insights from a CCG perspective on how NHS England will drive change at local level.
