Communicating the Value of Medical Affairs within Medical Device Companies
CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Aug. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Medical Affairs function has steadily grown into one of the most vital functions for the Medical Device industry. While the importance of the function is recognized, leaders often struggle with communicating the value of the function to key internal stakeholders.
