Pharmaceutical Strategies

Wakefield, Massachusetts, United States
Pharmaceutical Strategies LLC is a staffing company in the pharmacy benefit managers ('PBM') sector of the US healthcare market. The Board believes that PS is well positioned to benefit from the growth in the PBM market following the need to manage the cost of healthcare after the adoption of the Affordable Care Act. With an improved economy, an ageing population and increasing obesity levels, the US Department of Health and Human Services projects growth in healthcare expenditure to average 5.8% per annum between 2014 and 2024, helping drive continued demand for staffing in the healthcare sector into the mid-term.
