New White Paper: Enhancing Payer Interactions through the Medical Function

CHAPEL HILL, N.C., May. 20, 2019/PRNewswire/ -- Pharma is turning to the medical affairs function to enhance interactions with critical payer groups such as Accountable Care Organizations and Integrated Delivery Networks.

Our research found that while multi-site health systems and VA/DoD are currently targeted by many organizations, they are contacted only once or twice a year in many cases. On the other hand, most of the payer groups that Medical Affairs groups support and serve are met with at least once a quarter.

Download the white paper, "Developing and Deploying High-Impact Payer-Facing Medical Affairs Teams," to identify other leading medical affairs strategies for payer and ACO/IDN engagement success.

Through its Research and Advisory Services program, Best Practices, LLC conducted a primary research study to capture critical metrics and insights on payer segmenting and targeting, data presentation and field resource deployment.
