Patient Journey Mapping

Patient organizations shape patient and consumers’ knowledge and experience in a multitude of ways ranging from disease awareness campaigns to assistance in securing access to optimal care and beyond. Committed to the best interests of patients and families, advocates constantly expand the ways they empower constituents to live with their diseases. Along the way, these groups gather in-depth understanding of diseases as well as associated unmet medical needs, firsthand knowledge of preferences, confirmation of acceptable risks and benefits and much more.

Why MK&A?

While delivering insights that help define the optimal strategy and communication plan, our customized approach informs an appropriate advocacy strategy by pinpointing the specific role of patient and consumer groups have in awareness, evaluation, and adoption of new diagnostic and treatment options.

Our patient-centric approach to journey mapping:

  • Ensures the patient perspective is incorporated across the development continuum
  • Shows where and how compliant patient engagement can impact discovery, development and approval
  • Reveals new and innovative ways to partner with patient advocates
