FSMB FOUNDATION
Online Prescriber Education Network (OPEN)
In April 2006, the FSMB Foundation was awarded a $362,000 grant as part of a national program designed to educate health care professionals about pharmaceutical industry marketing practices and provide tools for accessing unbiased sources of information about drugs.
The FSMB Foundation developed the Online Prescriber Education Network (OPEN), a Web-based portal that provides educational programs to practicing physicians about pharmaceutical industry marketing techniques and their effect on prescribing practices.
The portal includes unbiased and authoritative sources of information about medications, pragmatic strategies and tools for evidence-based prescribing, and adverse event assessment and reporting.
