How important is it to know SAS for HEOR?

curpro- Do people working in HEOR need to be able to code in SAS?

RPF- You will not need to program in SAS if you are in HEOR in pharma (other than rare circumstances where they might directly hire programmers for a specific case) - most of the study work is done in collaboration with vendors who will be the ones doing the coding and running the analyses.\r\n\r\nThat being said, having knowledge of SAS and the logic of programming, etc. is important in being able to execute studies and to guide the vendor with regards to what you want done."
