Title: Big picture thinking: bringing pharmacy and medical together
Description: A recent study by a large, national health company found that nearly three-quarters of large employers are either actively integrating or considering integrating medical, pharmacy and other benefits. The largest employers seem to be leading the way. What is driving the interest in integration, and why would it make sense to have integrated pharmacy benefits? This session could change your perspective on best practices for managing care and costs.
