Providing efficient and effective health care is a global challenge.

It is also the Platform for Member Engagement, Dialogue with Decision Makers, Education and Information Sharing as well as Networking between outcome researchers, health technology developers and assessors, regulators, health economists, health care policy makers, payers, providers, patients, populations, and society as a whole. LSPOR is the Lebanon chapter of ISPOR, the leading International Society for Pharmaco-economics and Outcomes Research.
