The SACT Medicines Management Sub-Group was established by the Wales Cancer Network SACT Group. The group meets three times a year and aims to provide a multidisciplinary platform for making consensus recommendations relating to the best-practice use of SACT and SACT-supporting medicines, ensuring equity of access and optimisation of use. It also provides strategic leadership for medicines management priorities of the All Wales SACT Group.
This enables a coordinated approach for developments such as ePrescribing, SACT dataset, horizon scanning, governance and accessibility, and prioritising a Once-for-Wales approach, ensuring delivery against national standards agreed by the All Wales SACT Group.
The SACT Pharmacy Leads are Anthony Cadogan (Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board), Tracy Parry (Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board) and Gail Povey (Swansea Bay University Health Board).
There are several specialist interest groups with BOPA. The groups and BOPA work together jointly to promote excellence in the pharmaceutical care of patients with cancer through education, communication, research or innovation.
