New Survey Indicates "Highest-Value" Physicians Most Likely to Participate in Aptilon's Live Video Detailing Service
Date:11/10/2008

the key factors likely enabling the high participation and activity by "highest-value" physicians. More than 50 percent of Aptilon's live video detail sessions occurred during evenings (after 5 p.m.) or Saturdays when physicians were participating from home. The study found that physicians participating outside of traditional practice hours (after 5 p.m. or Saturdays) had 20% longer detail durations than did physicians engaging in online details during office hours.

The study demonstrates a potent new physician access channel that can help address the challenges that pharmaceutical sales representatives have accessing "high-value" physicians during normal practice hours. The recent Health Strategies Group 2008 Access Report found that pharmaceutical representatives rated 38% of physicians as "hard-to-see" or "no-see" physicians.

Representatives can also access their called-on physicians remotely using Aptilon's AxcelRx Live video detailing channel. Representatives can schedule online details at times more convenient for their key physicians, and use their Internet-accessible laptops or Tablet PCs to complete longer details with dynamic presentations. Aptilon's physician survey found that 85% of physicians were interested in participating in a scheduled online detail with a representative who was calling on their practice.
