The long-awaited digital transformation of biopharma industry has allowed Medical Affairs to embrace omnichannel engagement to deliver a consistent, personalized experience to key stakeholders across channels. A relatively new phenomenon to Medical Affairs, omnichannel implementation requires a meticulous approach to strategy - incorporating various aspects like resourcing, activities planning, identifying right channels for communication, setting program goals, and assessing effectiveness.

This research probes and profiles current levels of omnichannel engagement in Medical Affairs, staffing and budget dedicated to omnichannel efforts, digital and in-person engagement activities, direct and indirect communication channels, and emerging KPIs for evaluation. The study further explores the challenges, benefits, and lessons learned in implementing omnichannel engagement programs.

Study Snapshot

Best Practices, LLC engaged 57 leaders from 43 biopharma companies in this research through a benchmark survey.

Key topics covered in this report include:

  • Current Use of Omnichannel in Medical Affairs
  • Omnichannel Maturity Levels
  • Drivers of Omnichannel Engagement Plans
  • Omnichannel Benefits and Challenges
  • Key Omnichannel Activities
  • Omnichannel Staffing and Budget
  • High-Impact Channels for Omnichannel Engagement
  • Omnichannel Program Goals and KPIs

Key Findings

Select key insights uncovered from this report are noted below. Detailed findings are available in the full report.

  • Current use of omnichannel in Medical Affairs: 83% of surveyed biopharma manufacturers have already implemented some form of an omnichannel engagement program within Medical Affairs. Another 15% are planning to do so. Just 2% have no plans to adopt an omnichannel model.
  • Leading companies find high impact across many channels and touchpoints: No one channel is perfect for all segments or individual targets, but each can contribute “a piece to the puzzle” of forging a better overall user experience. Leading companies achieve much higher impact than other emerging companies in these engagement channels: MSL virtual presentations, data slides and on/off-label presentations, Med Info letters, unbranded websites, publications, HCP portals, and social media.
