Free Web Seminar – Healthcare Modeling – Archimedes
Online Seminar on Cost Effectiveness Analysis of Personalized Medicine by Archimedes, Healthcare Modeling Company.
Archimedes, a Healthcare Modeling Company is organizing an online seminar (webinar) on Cost Effectiveness Analysis of Personalized Medicine on September 22nd (Tuesday), 2009 from 2 PM to 3 PM. The underlying premise of personalized medicine is the use of genetic information to ensure that new and existing medical interventions are used more effectively and more safely. This will help to deliver medications to the right patient, at the right dose, at the right time while minimizing side effects. However, as a new healthcare technology, it is important to quantify the impact of genetic testing/screening on both clinical and economic outcomes and to demonstrate the overall benefit of personalized medicine in comparison to standard treatment.
In this webinar, Peter Alperin, M.D., Medical Director at Archimedes, Inc., will explain the Archimedes Model - a scientifically and clinically validated mathematical model that has been in development for over 15 years, and how to use the Archimedes Model to evaluate cost-effectiveness of genetic testing/screening.
Who can attend?
- Individuals in Health Economics and Outcomes Research Teams of Biotechnology organizations, Pharmaceutical companies and Medical Device manufacturers.
- Individuals in Marketing and Product Brand Teams of Biotechnology organizations, Pharmaceutical companies and Medical Device manufacturers.
