I. Spotlight: Harnessing the Value of AI In Customer Engagementđ€
Pharmaceutical firms are leveraging artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) to improve customer experience through customer targeting and personalized engagement. This is commonly bundled under terms such as ârecommendation engineâ or ânext best actionâ and is being deployed in a variety of engagement contexts, including:
Patient support program (PSP) interactions between support specialists and patients
Non-personal campaigns for HCPs and patients
Personal sales force engagements with healthcare providers (HCPs)
The objective in each case is to target customers most likely to respond, at an opportune time, with personally relevant messaging delivered via content formats and channels most likely to generate a response.
In this article, we share some real-world examples of companies using AI/ML. We summarize key success factors inspired by our clients on maximizing the success of customer engagement AI/ML initiatives.
Here are three key areas where AI/ML is delivering a notable impact on customer engagement.
Adherence via personalized patient support interventions
One of our clients, a mid-size biotechnology firm specializing in rare diseases, runs a highly successful patient support operation. They have been using AI/ML to build a set of tools to support the day-to-day decision-making of their patient support specialists to personalize their interactions with patients.
Their patient support specialists needed to peruse over a dozen dashboards to make decisions on which patient outreach to prioritize on a given day, something that was taking time away from their primary responsibility âconnecting with patients.
