NCODA 2022 Fall Summit Recap

Two of our BOPA members, Sadia Malik (Digital and E & T Subcommittee member) and Rebecca Devine (Executive committee member) attended the NCODA (National Community Oncology Dispensing Association) Fall Summit kindly funded through BOPA and NCODA’s new collaboration. This international partnership will help both organisations to support one another with sharing guidance, experience and practice to support the horizon scanning of both organisations. Sadia and Rebecca will be presenting their experience and thoughts of the NCODA Fall Summit at the BOPA Symposium 2023.

This newsletter is a summary from NCODA of the presentations and discussions that took place at this summit. We look forward to hearing a more detailed presentation at the BOPA Symposium 2023.
