SAE Media Group Presents their inaugural conference on...

Pharmaceutical m-Health

About the conference

This conference will provide attendees with vital information on the current market and the opportunity to learn about mobile healthcare strategies from key industry players in this rapidly evolving field. In such an innovative and fast-paced sector, it is essential that you are kept up to date with the numerous ways the pharmaceutical industry can benefit from, and contribute to the increasing mobility of healthcare.

At this inaugural event, attendees will benefit from the unique opportunity to network with senior pharmaceutical executives from the leading organisations in the field as well as learning about a broad range of related issues in technological advancements and novel applications of pharmaceutical mobile healthcare.

The global telemedicine market is expected to grow from $9.8 billion in 2010 to $23 billion in 2015*, and therefore represents a major opportunity. The vast potential for mobile phones to change everyday life with their increasing technological capacity to connect people and systems over vast distances, send and receive larger amounts of information, and operate from ever more advanced platforms, affects people and businesses in a variety of ways. Healthcare is certainly no exception, and there are several areas of the pharmaceutical industry that are either undergoing fundamental changes to accommodate and gain from this mobility, or are about to.

Key Topics to be Addressed:

Marketing, Sales and CRM: With e-marketing a now long established faucet of promotion, the difference that a mobile personalised service can offer is significant. The opportunities for personalised information delivered through a variety of interactive mediums and devices are ever increasing. In addition, the options that open up to reps in the field as a result of mobile technology are vast, and therefore merit thorough discussion as featured at this event.


Healthcare professionals and communication: How can pharma gain from the fact that a growing percentage of physicians not only own smart phones, but use them regularly in the workplace? Through mobile e-detailing and e-prescribing apps for example, knowledge about products are more easily accessible, as is feedback on those products.    


Anti counterfeiting and developing markets: The pharmaceutical industry looses billions a year from counterfeited goods, and the toll this takes on the health of the patients that use them is made all the more shocking by the fact that developing nations are the most vulnerable to this crime. The increasing usage of mobiles in such countries means that information on how to spot such goods can reach far and wide, as can healthcare information in general


Clinical trials: The possibilities to monitor patients from a distance via mobile connectivity are altering the way trials are conducted, as well as recruitment and retention. Self monitoring in chronic diseases has the potential to save an enormous amount each year.


Adherence: Improving patient adherence is of benefit to patients, healthcare professionals, and pharmaceutical companies themselves. The growing usage of mobile phones to issue medication reminders, and advise on the correct usage of pharmaceutical products, is therefore an exciting new outlet for improving adherence.

    WHAT IS CPD?

    CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development’. It is essentially a philosophy, which maintains that in order to be effective, learning should be organised and structured. The most common definition is:

    ‘A commitment to structured skills and knowledge enhancement for Personal or Professional competence’

    CPD is a common requirement of individual membership with professional bodies and Institutes. Increasingly, employers also expect their staff to undertake regular CPD activities.

    Undertaken over a period of time, CPD ensures that educational qualifications do not become obsolete, and allows for best practice and professional standards to be upheld.

    CPD can be undertaken through a variety of learning activities including instructor led training courses, seminars and conferences, e:learning modules or structured reading.

    CPD AND PROFESSIONAL INSTITUTES

    There are approximately 470 institutes in the UK across all industry sectors, with a collective membership of circa 4 million professionals, and they all expect their members to undertake CPD.

    For some institutes undertaking CPD is mandatory e.g. accountancy and law, and linked to a licence to practice, for others it’s obligatory. By ensuring that their members undertake CPD, the professional bodies seek to ensure that professional standards, legislative awareness and ethical practices are maintained.

    CPD Schemes often run over the period of a year and the institutes generally provide online tools for their members to record and reflect on their CPD activities.

    TYPICAL CPD SCHEMES AND RECORDING OF CPD (CPD points and hours)

    Professional bodies and Institutes CPD schemes are either structured as ‘Input’ or ‘Output’ based.

    ‘Input’ based schemes list a precise number of CPD hours that individuals must achieve within a given time period. These schemes can also use different ‘currencies’ such as points, merits, units or credits, where an individual must accumulate the number required. These currencies are usually based on time i.e. 1 CPD point = 1 hour of learning.

    ‘Output’ based schemes are learner centred. They require individuals to set learning goals that align to professional competencies, or personal development objectives. These schemes also list different ways to achieve the learning goals e.g. training courses, seminars or e:learning, which enables an individual to complete their CPD through their preferred mode of learning.

    The majority of Input and Output based schemes actively encourage individuals to seek appropriate CPD activities independently.

    As a formal provider of CPD certified activities, SAE Media Group can provide an indication of the learning benefit gained and the typical completion. However, it is ultimately the responsibility of the delegate to evaluate their learning, and record it correctly in line with their professional body’s or employers requirements.

    GLOBAL CPD

    Increasingly, international and emerging markets are ‘professionalising’ their workforces and looking to the UK to benchmark educational standards. The undertaking of CPD is now increasingly expected of any individual employed within today’s global marketplace.
