Field Access Projects

Optimising and prioritising field access activities to align with brand direction

The pharmaceutical industry is seeing an increase in the importance of payer customers, in addition to the prescriber’s role, in drug selection. To succeed, pharmaceutical manufacturers need an in- depth knowledge of this new dynamic. How engaging are your field access staff with this emerging customer group? How aligned are they with your intended brand direction and priorities? STEM Field Access teams will help you to quantify the area of Field Access, supporting improved processes and better outcomes.
