Will other companies find it necessary to follow GSK s lead, even going steps further to eliminate other types of KOL collaborations? In an age defined by instant access to data, heightened scrutiny and transparency, and no margin for error in getting products to market, companies have higher standards than ever before for finding and maintaining relationships with the right medical experts. Thought Leader Select s Paul Meade, a 35-year industry veteran, walks through some of the emerging challenges stemming from post- Sunshine Act regulatory demands and the onward push of technology, along with a set of recommendations for making KOL relationships mutually beneficial for industry and healthcare professionals.
