This hospital website will retire on August 18th. To better serve Mass General Brigham patients, we are consolidating all hospital websites into one system website. After August 18th, you will be able to find information about all our services, physicians, hospitals, and locations on our newly launched massgeneralbrigham.org.

Pharmacoepidemiology & Pharmacoeconomics Research

In 1998, the BWH Department of Medicine created the Division of Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacoeconomics to facilitate a wide range of activities related to the use and outcomes of medications, addressed from a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives. Its mission is to bring together the various specialties of medicine, epidemiology, biostatistics, health services research, and the social sciences to evaluate the effectiveness of existing and new prescription drugs in relation to their risks and costs; to study how medications are used by physicians and patients; and to develop methods to optimize prescription drug use.
