BRAS Workshop on Budget Impact Calculation (first announcement)

Location : Novotel Brussels Airport, 1831 Diegem

Timing : from 09h30 to 17h00

We are very pleased to invite you for our first workshop organised by the BRAS Market Access Working group.
The session is organised for persons involved in Regulatory Affairs, Market Access and Pricing and Reimbursement of healthcare products.
Budget Impact Analysis is an essential part of a comprehensive economic assessment of a new pharmaceutical product.
A panel of four consultants with extensive experience and expertise in health economics and reimbursement will guide you on an interactive way through the theoretical and practical aspects of Budget Impact Analysis.
Participants will, prior to the course day, also have the opportunity to submit their general questions or specific cases and we will submit these to the experts for discussion during the session.
Participants will, during the afternoon workshops, also acquire relevant guidance and practical experience on how to address the different approaches to specific situations in the management of a dossier.

The language for the workshop is English.

The course is open to anyone interesting in learning, but in order to grant the participants the best teaching quality, the attendance is limited. Therefore, if you are interested in following the course, early registration is recommended.
