By: PR Newswire Association LLC. - 15 Sep 2017Back to overview list

CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Sept. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The pharmaceutical industry relies on field-based medical teams to share scientific and outcomes-related data with key external stakeholders such as thought leaders and payers.

The demand for this type of data on pharmaceutical products is increasing, and to meet this growing need pharma has been expanding field-based medical teams beyond just Medical Science Liaisons. These field teams now include roles such as Health Outcome Liaisons (HOLs) or similar functions that can provide the value-oriented and outcomes information that payers need to sign formulary contracts.
