SUMMARY:Delayed and denied: The challenges faced by Canadians with rare disorders
DESCRIPTION:﻿ \nFewer new drugs for rare disorders come to Canada relative to the US and Europe. Canada has set-up barriers that delay or deny access to new drugs for many patients with unmet or poorly met healthcare needs. This leaves vulnerable Canadians at a serious disadvantage. \nThis webinar will highlight how these barriers impact Canadians living with rare disorders\, how the federal government made matters worse over the past six years with well-intentioned but poorly conceived plans to reduce drug prices\, and why the result has been greater uncertainty and further delays. We will also discuss the impact of a proposed national pharmacare program and alternative ways to help ensure Canadians\, especially those with rare disorders\, have access to the drugs they need. \n\n\nEvent Details: \n\nDate: Tuesday\, January 16\, 2024\nTime: 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm ET\n\nPlease note\, that all registered attendees will receive a post-event recording of the webinar. If you are unable to tune in live\, you can watch the recording at your convenience. \n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for this webinar below: \n\n\n﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿
