How private and public organisations can work together to improve access
As global demand for healthcare rises and new treatments come to market, pressure is intensifying on how and what services are delivered. Cancer care is a prime example, with the overall volume of patients growing due to aging populations, and many health systems struggling to deliver increasingly advanced therapies with limited resources. The dual challenge is to make progress on prevention while providing access to the right treatments in a way that is efficient and affordable.
Closer collaboration between industry and healthcare providers has the potential to improve both cancer prevention and access to treatment. What more can be done to support prevention? How can public-private partnerships lead to better cancer care? What role does each stakeholder in the healthcare ecosystem have to play? What are some good examples? Should employers and private sector stakeholders play a bigger role in supporting those with cancer?
Join the Financial Times in partnership with MSD to explore how stakeholders across the healthcare and life sciences sector are working to improve cancer prevention, care and outcomes. Expert speakers will share insights into the solutions and approaches being explored and implemented within health systems in the Middle East, mainly focusing on GCC, Egypt and the Levant.
