The Medical Plan and Tactical Implementation
With Maaike Addicks, MD
Course Details
The Medical Plan is a crucial strategic roadmap that guides Medical Affairs’ activities during the year and ensures that the Medical Affairs team optimally contributes to the success of a company’s brands. A strategically designed and well-crafted medical plan will not only enhance the impact of the Medical Affairs team in engaging with key stakeholders, but it will also facilitate proactive decision-making and position the department as a vital contributor to the overall success of the company.
On the one hand, this course equips you with the tools and skills to build a medical plan in a logical way.
However, for a plan to be impactful, decisions during tactical implementation are equally critical. Therefore, in this course you will get many tips and tricks on how to choose the most effective tactics to reach the goals set in the Medical Plan, and on how to optimally plan and execute them throughout the year.
Participate in this course for the unique opportunity to gain advice for your specific questions from a true Medical Affairs expert. Join a group of your international cross-industry peers, mostly medical advisors and medical science liaisons, to learn from their experiences, discuss common issues and gain new ideas.
Excellent detail and insights from Maaike's extensive medical experience. I heard so many 'gems' of knowledge that will be useful. The interaction with other participants was really enjoyable, hearing different angles and experiences. Highly recommended!

Depending on the format of the course (face-to-face in Brussels or live online or self-study programme) and your location, we are obliged by Belgian law to apply VAT in the following cases:
Face-to-Face public course organised in Belgium
Article 53 of the European Union VAT Directive 2006/112 states that : “The place of supply of services in respect of admission to cultural, artistic, sporting, scientific, educational, entertainment or similar events, such as fairs and exhibitions, and of ancillary services related to the admission, supplied to a taxable person, shall be the place where those events actually take place.”
If the course that you register for takes place in Belgium, we are obliged to charge 21% Belgian VAT.
However, you can recover this Belgian VAT through the refund procedure. Note that this procedure differs depending on the country where you are located. It is best to contact your local VAT administration for this.
Online Public courses - live webinar
Webinars where the participants can communicate among themselves or ask questions to the speaker(s) (be it verbally, via a chat function or similar), are considered as ‘a service supplied by electronic means’ by the Belgian VAT administration.
According to Article 56 of the European Union VAT Directive 2006/112, these services supplied by electronic means take place where the customer is established. Therefore, we follow the VAT rules applicable to the country of your invoicing address.
Self-Study Programme:
A self-study programme is a service provided electronically. It is the period of self-study that is the most important in our self-study Basics of Health Economics and not the kickoff and closing webinars. As a result, the place of the service is where the customer is established. Therefore, we follow the VAT rules applicable to the country of your invoicing address.
Our face-to-face courses are held in the Crowne Plaza Brussels Airport hotel (Da Vincilaan 4, 1831 Brussels).
We have an agreement with this hotel to offer beneficial room rates. Upon your registration, we will assist you to make your hotel booking.
For any assistance in this matter please do not hesitate to email Margherita Mutto, Course Coordinator, or contact her by phone at +32 472 03 11 38.
We do not record our live online public courses as we want to offer a safe environment for all attendees to share their experiences and freely ask questions.
This way, by participating in our courses, you do not only learn from our expert faculty but also from your international peers in the room.
No, we don't sell the course materials as a stand-alone.
Without the expert's explanation, the exercises and the discussions with other course participants, there is very little value in the slides.
Email Inge Cornelis (Director, Client & Product Projects) to help you choose the course that is best suited.
