Survey Topic: Benchmarking Fair Market Value for Thought Leaders in the Healthcare Industry

Objective: With increasing importance of transparency, healthcare leaders must provide a clear line of sight into how they compensate industry thought leaders and physicians.  Bio-pharma executives are being pressed to re-assess their current thought leader compensation strategies as new state reporting laws and changes to their organizations’ policies (PhRMA code, ACCME guidelines, etc.) are being enforced.  At the same time, access to thought leaders themselves has continued to shrink, whether in academic institutions or elsewhere.  Put simply, it has never been more important for healthcare companies to get it right when it comes to thought leader management.  This benchmarking study is designed to examine trends in Fair Market Value for thought leaders, capturing critical metrics and insights on thought leader management, compensation levels, and proven practices.

Lead Researcher: Cameron Tew

Invited Participants: Vice presidents, executives, directors, managers, and other professionals working within Medical Affairs and thought leader management functions.
