Pharmaceutical Industry Study Examines Digital Patient Engagement Strategies that work Across Markets
CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Jan. 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Pharmaceutical companies recognize that digital technology is tied to the future success of their patient engagement programs.
That realization has pharma scrambling to operationally align its patient engagement programs with digital capabilities and activities. How many FTEs are needed? What budget will be required to make digital patient engagement programs effective? What digital activities are most effective? Complicating these questions is the fact that the answers can differ across global, developed and emerging markets.
To provide digital and marketing leaders with current benchmarks that answer these questions across all three markets, Best Practices, LLC has published a study, "Connecting Pharma to Patients with Digital Patient Engagement Strategies in Global, Emerging, and Developed Markets." The report probes winning strategies, effective practices, and potential stumbling blocks encountered as a company shifts toward digital patient engagement in global, developed and emerging markets.
The key chapters in the 97-page report are:
- Technology and Tools for Successful Engagement Programs
- Staffing for Patient Engagement
- Investment in Digital Engagement
- Structure of Patient Engagement Groups
- Processes and Vendors Used
- Service Levels: Engagement Scope and Depth Delivered
- Aligning Marketing with the Patient Journey
- Performance Metrics
- Lessons Learned from Qualitative Insights
Best Practices, LLC engaged 54 industry professionals from 34 companies through a benchmarking survey, focus group interviews and round-table discussion.
