Ipsos MMA and HealthVerity partner to Reinvent Omnichannel Patient and HCP Attribution in the Pharma Industry

Ipsos MMA brings a new approach to measuring the impact of commercial investments across the patient and physician journey to maximize the value of campaigns for Pharma brands and their agency partners. 

NEW YORK, April 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ipsos MMA, a leader in helping pharma and healthcare brands measure and optimize the value of their patient and HCP promotions, today announced a partnership that integrates Ipsos MMA's Unified Patient & HCP Attribution model with HealthVerity IPGE, the industry's leading infrastructure for patient identity resolution, privacy, governance and exchange of broadscale healthcare and consumer data.  The partnership delivers privacy-protected and HIPAA-compliant activations with media platforms for pharmaceutical brands as an end-to-end, closed-loop measurement and optimization solution.

This innovative and future-proofed capability enables pharmaceutical marketers to generate and activate audiences, measure the quality of the audiences reached and optimize omnichannel net conversion lift while campaigns are in market. Through a combination of privacy-protected, HIPAA-compliant data, processes and advanced AI modeling, brands can now automate "next best actions" across patient and physician journeys to drive incremental scripts and adherence, maximizing long-term profits.

Ipsos MMA's Unified Patient & HCP Attribution model has been validated with clients and has been shown to produce measurable improvements in revenue and profits. Ipsos MMA has also been named a leader in The Forrester Wave™ : Marketing Measurement & Optimization Solutions, Q1 2022.

"We have partnered with some of the top pharma brands, their agencies, HealthVerity and industry data partners/platforms across the media ecosystem to validate that our integrated solutions will produce better results for our clients.  We believe that by working closely with them to operationalize these capabilities it will prove to provide transformational results for the industry," said Doug Brooks, EVP at Ipsos MMA. "Ipsos MMA's Unified Patient & HCP Attribution capability unlocks the omnichannel opportunity for pharma executives by taking advantage of synergies between DTC, HCP and sales force, enabling orchestrated planning, optimizing campaigns in-market, targeting and creating new audiences and leveraging both Patient and Physician journeys for Next Best Action through an innovative use of AI."

"With this capability, pharma brands can integrate patient and HCP marketing journeys and enhanced data attributes to generate, activate, and prioritize high-value audiences that are linked to downstream conversions while campaigns are live. Our unique solution does not rely on third-party cookies and is not impacted by advancements in data deprecation.  This approach gives brand and media planners true cross-platform and omnichannel investment optimization opportunities. In a world where data privacy is critical, we can offer marketers and their agencies a safe way to activate and measure both traditional and digital channels against intended audiences," said Robert Cardarelli, EVP Analytics and Attribution for Ipsos MMA.
