The conference will assemble a variety of stakeholders representing diverse backgrounds – including payers, patients, researchers, policymakers and government officials – to identify and disseminate practical and effective strategies to improve population health through better medication use. Sessions will focus on the use of health information technology, successes and challenges around adherence programs, the role of policy, and measurement and quality improvement, among other topics.
