Top Takeaways
- Secret formula for success: The second-place team is holding onto its position despite having one of the lowest performance and satisfaction scores on most medical affairs services.
- Two-tier market: Rated for overall quality of interactions, the top 3 teams are within less than 3 points of one another, while their closest rival is a full 6 points behind.
- Shared blind spot: Need-gap analysis shows that nearly every team needs to do a better job of providing a specific kind of information. What is it, and which team is already delivering?
- Need for practical information: Both the ways doctors use teams and the services they deem important reflect a need for information they can use to make better clinical decisions.
- Welcome visitors: Teams tend to be contacting doctors about as often as doctors want to see them. Learn out whether your team is over- or under communicating.
- Get to the point: Some respondents say that teams need to be better about respecting doctors’ time. See just how widespread a problem this is, and what other areas teams need to improve.
