Hub Models and Program Design

I am pleased to welcome CBI’s Hub Models and Program Design as a Drug Channels sponsor. The conference will be held at Hyatt at the Bellevue in Philadelphia, PA on February 27 and 28, 2013.

I’m glad to see this new CBI conference, since specialty hubs are an infrequently-discussed part of the specialty pharmaceutical ecosystem. Hubs perform activities for payers, patients, and providers related to reimbursement and patient access support services. Participating speakers come from such companies as Eli Lilly, EMD Serono, IBM, Occam Health Services, Shire HGT, UCB, United BioSource, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, and more.

For additional details, read the official description below or visit the event website.

And if you make it to Philly, please skip the cheesesteaks. Instead, try one of our 50 best restaurants!

• How is cutting-edge technology enabling new hub models and patient services to emerge?
• How do I integrate e-prescribing into a hub design?
