Overview

Our mission at Pharmaceutical Health Services, Outcomes, and Policy Graduate Program from the University of Georgia is to evaluate, and communicate to improve the health and well-being of society.

Quick Facts:

The increasing complexity of drug utilization in the modern world creates complex problems in pharmaceutical care delivery. Practitioners and researchers need to investigate and understand how changes in the health care system will affect the structure, process and outcomes of pharmaceutical care.
Increasingly, society has been called upon to maximize health outcomes subject to some type of budget constraint, and the need to identify and select efficient health inputs is paramount. Changes in products (goods and services), access to care, freedom of choice, reimbursement policy, direct-to-consumer advertising, health outcomes, health policy issues – including third party considerations and government regulation are a few examples of the issues which will impact on the delivery of pharmaceutical care.
These issues will require researchers skilled in a broad spectrum of disciplines including, but not limited to, economics, administration, finance, marketing, epidemiology, and psychology.
