We’re a company that takes on the toughest health challenges. But we do more than treat diseases—we aim to make a remarkable impact on people’s lives. We are AbbVie, a highly focused research-driven biopharmaceutical company.

Our mission describes how we will achieve this:
  • through our research and policy analysis
  • through the work we do with individuals, organisations and communities building their capability, supporting them to adopt best practice and share learning
  • by bringing people together through events and networks to discuss and learn from evidence from the United Kingdom and across the world
  • by promoting greater understanding of health and care policy and practice – helping people to make sense of a complex and rapidly changing environment.

Breakfast session

Breakfast session: Understanding how patients access medicines in the UK

09:00 AM 09:45 AM Maynard theatre, lower ground flooe

Medicines are a vital part of modern health care. The question of how to give patients access to innovative medicines, in a way that the NHS can afford, has exercised policy-makers, politicians and industry for many years and can be complicated and difficult to navigate for many stakeholders.
This session will explore the current medicines landscape and highlight some of the key challenges to patients accessing medicines in the United Kingdom.
