Pharmaceutical Observatory
Since 1997, OSFAR, the Pharmaceutical Observatory of CERGAS SDA Bocconi collects, systematizes and analyzes:
- qualitative data on public policies and the management systems of the pharmaceutical assistance, in particular those of licensed pharmacies
- quantitative data on the trend of public and private pharmaceutical expenditure at international, national and regional levels
- the effects of pharmaceutical assistance policies and management systems on the expenditure trend.
The data collected are then used by OSFAR to prepare the Report: an analysis of public and private pharmaceutical expenditure at an international, national and regional level.
