Please Tell Me Who You Are: Identifying Different Roles in the Hospital Setting

Speakers: Kristen Jaworski, RN, BSN, CCRC

In this session, we focus on the variety of healthcare providers families with a bleeding disorder will encounter and give effective methods on how to best communicate with them. We define “need to know” information and role play an exercise on how to effectively advocate for your care when dealing with different providers. Leave the session with a list of phrases that will aid in conversations with healthcare providers and a basic template of “need to know” information. Best of all, you will have increased confidence in working with your healthcare team.

Global Blood Safety, Optimizing Treatment and the Affordability of Care

Speakers: Brian O’Mahony, Mark W. Skinner

Over the next few years, we will see a revolution in treatment not seen since the 1960s. Treatment products will advance on all fronts, from viral-inactivated (solvent detergent) cryoprecipitate, biosimilars of current therapies and treatment products with substantially enhanced efficacy to the increasing likelihood that through gene transfer a “cure” may become a reality. The blood safety concerns of the past have been replaced by current concerns about maintaining vigilance against such blood-borne agents as viruses and prions. Equally important are the challenges of adequate factor supply and access to products around the world. This session describes how patients have started to join forces to bring all key stakeholders together to ensure that the views of product users are considered when it comes to access to these vital therapies. During this session we also address the challenges of answering US government and payer demands for evidence-based medicine, and cost justification for the introduction of new therapies and enhancement of current treatments.
