Expanding Primary Health Care Services Provision to the Pharmaceutical Private Sector Across the Region
A webinar organised by:
30 July 2024
This webinar will focus on how expanding primary health care services provision to the pharmaceutical private sector can be achieved using the experience of a pilot programme implemented in Nigeria as a veritable template for the region. The integration of the pharmaceutical private sector into the nation’s health care delivery system is a key to meet universal health coverage (UHC) in most countries in the Afro Region of FIP because of their easy availability, access and non-payment of consultation fees. It will highlight the required policy changes, system strengthening tools and training will prepare pharmacists to position themselves critically. A panel discussion on current practice in selected countries and how the new learnings can be domiciled will also take place.
