HRA Announces New Nursing Home Market Study

Parsippany, NJ – April 2010 – HRA Research has announced the introduction of a new syndicated study on the nursing home market that will report on the major changes that are taking place in this market segment that will affect decisionmaking for the pharmaceutical industry – including changes in procurement by nursing home pharmacies, reimbursement through Medicare Part D and prescribing by physicians. This report will provide a detailed perspective on the nursing home market and changes taking place that could have implications in marketing efforts.  The report will discuss the impact of large nursing home pharmacy contracts involving discounts and rebates, the impact of prior authorization requirements, and will look at the competitive landscape of importance to pharmaceutical marketers as the nursing home market continues to grow during the next five years due to favorable demographics in the aging population.

The report is based on qualitative research with nursing home physicians, consultant pharmacists, nurses, purchasing managers of chains and quantitative research with nursing home physicians and medical directors and will be published and ready for distribution in July 2010.   “The Nursing Home Market Study will help pharmaceutical marketers understand sales drivers such as purchasing requirements among nursing home pharmacists and reimbursement of vaccines and pharmaceuticals through Medicare Part B and D, and other mechanisms,” said Dilip Phadnis, HRA Director of New Product Development.
