Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
Qualified Treatment Centres in APS
-
We would like to create a rep email that directs referring physician to the qualified treatment centre (QTC) in their region for a specific therapy. Does PAAB require a DOF or another reference about the name of these centres? Could the list include ones that are in the process of approval as a QTC but not yet approved to avoid having to update the APS as each one comes aboard? The manufacturer would not select any QTC for the email until it is approved.

Thank you.Hello @jennifer_cm
An attestation letter from Med/Reg confirming that only sites which have been approved will be listed is sufficient. When submitting, provide a standardized template of how the sites will be listed. This will allow sites to be added and removed without a need to re-review as this becomes an administrative feature.
