Dr. Dixon Thomas participated in the 2nd Middle East Pharmacoeconomics and Drug Policy Summit on November 17 and 18, 2022, and the 2nd Emirates Health Economics Society Conference on October 18 and 19, 2022. Both conferences happened in Dubai, UAE. The latest insights on pharmacoeconomics in the MENA Region were discussed in the light of regional research in pharmacoeconomics, policies & regulations. In addition, it was a unique opportunity to network with national and international health economists and industry and regulatory experts.
Dr. Dixon Thomas, Associate Dean Clinical, College of Pharmacy, Gulf Medical University, commented: “The importance of pharmacoeconomics is being realized more than ever in ensuring value and affordability of best quality of medicines in patient care. Pharmacists must be ready to ensure cost considerations of medications in the best interest of patients, providers, and payers.”
