DIA Annual Canadian Meeting 2016

Canadian consumers have access to more health information than ever before and are making more decisions about how to improve and maintain their health with the use of products they can choose and use on their own. Health Canada is modernizing the way these consumer health products are regulated. Understanding the consumer experience with self-care products is key to developing an effective regulatory framework and ensuring Canadian consumers have the information and tools that support informed decision-making. This session will provide an overview of the ways Health Canada is engaging with consumers and stakeholders beyond the use of traditional consultation methods.
