Making Patients the Priority

Overview

This On Demand Recording was recorded live during the Medical Affairs and Scientific Communications Annual Forum. 

Subsequently there may be short periods of time where the sound level may vary for any given presentation.  During these short intervals, you may want to turn up the speaker volume on your computer.


This session was chaired by Christi C. Marsh.

In this patient-focused recording, we will explore insights from a new solution center and how to measure time to impact to value with a patient-focused mindset.  Two patient advocates will share their insights on how to engage patients as partners.  There will be discussion on the challenges of navigating through a chronic illness as well as important resources that are available to help patients.  Key points will include the importance of finding community and support groups for patients, earlier involvement of patients in research and development, and caregiver needs and resources.
