  • VIEW TOC AND LIST OF EXHIBITS
As the role of Medical Science Liaisons (MSLs) continues to evolve in the US, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly relying on MSLs to have meaningful scientific interactions with Healthcare Practitioners (HCPs). Moreover, organizations are continually re-evaluating and updating their guidelines for scientific interactions between MSLs and Healthcare Practitioners (HCPs).

Best Practices, LLC conducted this benchmarking research to gather insights on current MSL practices for HCP interactions in the US. In particular, this report delivers benchmarks around proactive disease presentations, unsolicited requests on clinical data and off-label uses, and group HCP presentations. This report also delivers insights on the frequency, format, content and evaluators for recertification of medical science liaisons in the US.

Field medical team leadership in the US can refer to this research to compare their MSL interaction guidelines with current industry practices.

Study Snapshot

Best Practices, LLC engaged 15 US medical affairs leaders from 15 leading biopharmaceutical companies in this research through a benchmarking survey. Eighty-seven percent of the respondents serve at the Director level; 7% at Vice President and 7% serve as Heads.


Key topics covered in this report include:

  • MSL Interactions with US HCP Groups
  • MSL Involvement in Proactive Disease State Education
  • MSL Engagement with KOLs in Early Development Stage
  • Best Practices for MSL Interactions
  • Re-certification of MSLs


Key Findings

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

  • Proactive Disease State Education: Study participants indicated their MSLs typically present proactive disease state education prior to launch, with six months before launch the most common period; however, 40% said their MSLs have no restrictions on the timing of the presentations.

  • Engaging KOLs: Eighty percent of respondents have their MSLs actively engaging KOLs before launch year. The most common period in the development process is post-Phase II results (33%).
