• Retrieving the actual complete information of what is happening at each point of care
• Having access to the complete medical records information: Every single patient, every single variable, the most realistic data source possible
• In order to get this, you need a system which is able to retrieve information:
  • From any healthcare provider (as long as they have electronic health records -EHR-, paper doesn't work)
  • Natural Language Processing: 80% of the variables and outcomes are going to be in the clinical narratives´ free text

• Ensuring accurate KOL ID for engagement
• Utilising engagement channels for optimal outcomes
• Connecting data to verify understanding & strategy

The remit for Medical Affairs is extensive with a key objective of gathering actionable insights into clinician behaviour to identify practice and prescription patterns—and the rationales behind physician choices.  Join us to learn more about closing knowledge gaps to maximize the impact of your medical activities.

Let's take the idea of KOL engagement a bit further! Discover how to bridge the knowledge gap in multiple communities by sharing scientific information with relevant stakeholders simultaneously thus leveraging existing networks, relationships, and channels to foster connections. Join us in exploring the ideas and hear a few practical real-life cases of community engagement.

As the industry continues to rethink the profile of medical affairs, it must seek out new competencies, technology solutions, and data sources that better support patient-centric outcomes. Medical affairs leaders are at the forefront of this evolution and newly positioned to rewrite the traditional corporate formula for success. Understanding and analysing the scientific share of voice of competitive compounds has become increasingly critical when evolving commercialisation strategies. These highly specific insights create a foundation for continuous improvements and opportunities to act with greater focus. These efforts allow teams to accurately benchmark external relations and inform strategic engagement.
As innovation increases the complexity of care and the scientific demand of the treating community grows, the ability to identify and engage community leaders using insights from medical claims data is now critical for long-term success.

The principles of market access differ greatly from traditional 4 P  product price place promotion Marketing. The winning combination of clear demonstration of Patient, Provider Payer and Product benefits (Optimizing price but maximising the availability to patients who need the technology most) to HTA’s leads to faster adoption meaning patients receive great technologies sooner.

• Identifying decision-makers’ needs
• Assessing the relevant data to support claims
• Building a concrete value story
• Next steps: Teams, not tools, demonstrate value

While evidence requirements have changed under the new European framework for CE arking, the movement towards pan-European Health Technology Assessment also has gained traction, prompting greater conformity of HTA evidence requirements and "transplantation" of evidence reviews across geographies within the European Union.  Companies can expect CE Mark requirements to be more aligned with the demands of HTA bodies for reimbursement, but the challenges for medical device firms are greater, as local HTA bodies may be commissioned to implement assessments that have a pan-European impact.
