Patient Support Program (PSP) is one of the ways to help patients reduce the financial burden and get access to their prescribed medicine. However, the setup of the program usually involves different stakeholders with many discussions both internally and externally. This workshop aims to help our members to understand the current types of PSP running in the industry, the needs and the limitation. We invited distinguished guests to share their views from the perspective of patients, HA & NGOs. Hopefully, through the workshop can arise the interest, knowledge and uncover more potential programs in future.
