Are Process-related Barriers
Hurting Your Brand?
Physicians are inundated with clinical data from multiple sources that tell them what a drug does and why to prescribe. But only Process of Care® shows physicians how to prescribe. Thats because Process of Care® enlists physician peers to share their own processes and techniques for successfully using complex products. Peer influence is a powerful and effective way to help integrate a new idea into standard practice. And this approach is consistent with a long-standing tenet of medical training: observation first, application second, and instruction third or "see one, do one, teach one."
Process of Care® complements existing marketing programs because it augments clinical data with proven methods for how to use a new, complex, or less commonly used drug. The result of Process of Care® is greater physician mastery, improved patient care, and higher product utilization.
The root of disappointing brand performance is often a hidden process-related barrier. This may be the case if your product:
- Is underutilized, even though physicians understand the data and agree that it should be prescribed
- Is often reserved for special situations
- Experiences poor compliance rates and lack of brand loyalty
- Is languishing due to complexities associated with its use
- Is being developed for highly selective patient populations
- Is the first in a class with a new mechanism of action
- Has the potential for adverse events that require special management techniques
