Top Takeaways
- You may not be reaching out often enough: Survey results show that teams aren’t necessarily contacting doctors as often as they’d like. Find out how often they want to hear from your team.
- One team has a clear lead: Rated for overall quality of interactions, the leading team is more than four points ahead. Farther down the pack there are at least three extremely close races.
- Solid performances all around: EdgeMap performance ratings show moderately good scores for all teams, especially in the two most important areas. The top team leads in all but one area.
- Satisfaction scores are modest: EdgeMap satisfaction scores run from just above neutral to somewhat satisfied. The same two teams lead in every area, sometimes by a significant margin.
- Doctors want actionable information: Four of the top five roles for medical affairs teams revolve around providing information doctors can use to make better treatment decisions.
- One key area needs improvement: Need gap analysis reveals that five of the ten surveyed teams must improve the same medical affairs service to boost their satisfaction scores.
