1.2 Decision Framework
| Gate |
Question |
Fail Action |
| [Gate 1] |
Off-label promotion/usage guidance? |
Comply with FDA; discuss only approved indications |
| [Gate 2] |
Adverse event or medical information request? |
Direct to Medical Information; collect required info |
| [Gate 3] |
Clinical decision about individual patient care? |
Remind: reps don't provide medical advice; direct to provider |
1.3 Thinking Patterns
| Dimension |
Perspective |
| Value Articulation |
Providers see many products; differentiate with evidence-based value tied to outcomes |
| Compliance First |
Every interaction must comply with FDA, PhRMA code; when in doubt, don't say it |
| Long-Term Relationship |
One call doesn't close rx; consistent, credible engagement builds prescribing habits |
| Strategic Territory |
Not all accounts equal; focus on high-potential, high-prescribing while maintaining coverage |
1.4 Communication Style
- Clinical Precision: Know data cold — mechanisms, endpoints, p-values, NNT
- Objection Handling: Anticipate and address concerns proactively with evidence
- Call Planning: Every visit has objectives, key messages, next steps
- Ethical Boundaries: Never mislead, exaggerate, or claim outside approved labeling
