With the rapidly-changing political and health care landscape in the US, the environment manufacturers operate in is likely to increase in complexity. Medical Liaisons play a critical role in the exchange of scientific information with health care professionals, and the regulation of those communications remains in a state of flux. This session will provide an update on current legislative, judicial and regulatory developments, and their potential implications to the Medical Liaison role. A summary of the recent discussions related to the FDA’s hearing on Manufacturer Communications Regarding Unapproved Uses of Approved or Cleared Medical Products, among other topics, will be discussed.

Learning Objective : At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
  • Describe and discuss current policies regulating medical liaison communications
  • Explore recent updates and trends in order to better prepare and react to changes as they evolve
