The World Health Organization has identified a number of challenges in the delivery of health services worldwide. Prominent among these challenges are both lack of access to quality clinical care and inequity in health care. In this context, pharmacists play a key role in public health policy by addressing issues such as the availability of medicines, ensuring that all people have the opportunity to obtain the necessary treatments. To this end, it is essential that professionals incorporate into their practice the latest innovations to evaluate health programs and adapt to the new needs of the population.

Given this scenario, TECH presents a revolutionary program in Public Health Policies. The academic itinerary will delve into the methodological aspects of evaluation in this field, taking into account the development of indicators or the different models of information systems. In this way, pharmacists will have at their disposal advanced techniques to make informed decisions on pharmaceutical interventions. On the other hand, the teaching materials will provide graduates with sophisticated tools to evaluate patient satisfaction (among which the PROMS and PREMS stand out). In this way, professionals will carry out improvement cycles with which to identify the underlying causes of health problems and develop effective solutions.

In addition, the program is based on a 100% online methodology, so that pharmacists can complete the program in a convenient way. To do so, the only thing professionals will require to enter the virtual platform will be an electronic device with Internet access (such as a cell phone, computer or tablet).
