OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION FROM IIR

4th Annual Government Programs Summit

By March of 2012, this country will be entrenched in the election and Healthcare reform will no doubt be a subject in every political debate. Changes already rolled out have expanded government payer channels for pharmaceutical drugs beyond the scope of where they have ever been before. The impact is so widespread that entire departments are being restructured and integrated.

And we don’t have to tell you that since 2010 alone, pharmaceutical manufacturers have seen their organizations fined BILLIONS of dollars by the FDA for a multitude of infractions. Besides the financial toll, can you put a price tag on your company’s image? How about the value of being in the government program at all?
