Big data in patient record, predictive medicine, wellness maintenance, just in time medicine will create a possible savings of 10% of the entire US medical bill. Even though the focus of this article is on big data the areas of impact will have a significant effect on Pharma drug strategy.

A Brilliant statement by Thomas Edison which is the future of healthcare:
“THE DOCTOR OF THE FUTURE WILL GIVE NO MEDICINE, BUT WILL INTEREST HIS PATIENTS IN THE CARE OF THE HUMAN FRAME, IN DIET, AND IN THE CAUSE AND PREVENTION OF DISEASES.”

Interesting example of getting it right. The key is patient engagement around a target disease or problem

They are building great insights too along the way through listening to the community. That will certainly be fed through into the more traditional marketing material ;-)

Fusion is the integration of digital into the overall marketing mix. Tablet detailing is an example of cross channel opportunity being missed. Making tablet detailing a success is the top priority of over 300 Pharma marketers in 2013

The route to patients hearts is solution based. A key element of solutions will be the use of mobile apps which doctors will recommend to patients. In this age of digital maturity the Pharma are at the bottom of the list.

The "push promotion," or mass advertising of commercial messages in the form of sales professional details, branded websites, and branded direct to consumer advertisements are outdated. We now live in a world with a substantially greater quantity and quality of data, so the amount of transparency and the ability of payers, providers, and patients to compare outcomes has never been greater. pharmaceutical products will be held to much higher standards of health outcome.

Pharms will be dramatically impacted by the range of mhealth starts providing valuable services to patients and reducing costs. These 5 starts ups are great examples of break- through technologies. A number will use technology to remain patients for using medication which Pharma’s loss USD $ 300 billion in sales

The author made a interesting comment; “ Pharma’s tend to be 2-3 years behind online marketing trends” Studies show Pharma’s are at the bottom of the scale for industry adoption of digital technologies. Does spending USD $ 3 billion on TV and magazine DTC make sense?

This is shocking that Pharma are so far behind in digital maturity against other industries. The Pharma sales rep is dead or at least dying yet USD $ 15 billion being spent on the wrong thing. Clearly, Pharma’s need to move into e-detailing which is a mobile app to deliver information and education to doctors.

Pharms has a seat at the digital table but must change. Technology is an essential part of the solution future healthcare solutions. And digital health is a central part of this equation. The touch points for pharma are numerous and represent areas for engagement and support

Most pharma product websites are not only too heavy in text. When a consumer comes to a Pharma web site, they are looking for information which should be presented in a simple, clear fashion with a lot of graphics..

The pharmaceutical industry has experienced an increase in the cost per sales rep visit and a decrease in average time per visit and # visits accepted by the physicians. A well organized presentation using an ipad by a sales rep can change this trend
