Abstract:
An ongoing and increasing shift is occurring in ways in which the healthcare community (healthcare providers, patients, biopharma) disseminates and consumes information. Adoption of digital technologies, accelerated by the virtual environment created by the COVID-19 pandemic, are leading to new and innovative ways in which medical and scientific information and data are communicated. Digital technologies have largely enabled these approaches and led to an explosive increase in availability of information. This article describes considerations in how the healthcare community, and Medical Affairs organizations in biopharma, can effectively harness these channels to communicate effectively, and incorporate changes in behaviors and approaches to redefine what medical information and data look like.
