The 5 Key Questions Addressed by this Report:

• How many physicians were reached by Qvar through personal promotion in 2016 and how does this compare to its peer set in the Asthma markets?
• What promotional mix was leveraged (e.g., sales rep detailing, physician education, and paid speaking) and what was the median spend on each type of activity?
• How does Teva’s depth of coverage vary within key specialties (e.g., Pediatric Medicine, Allergy/Immunology, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Pulmonology) and how does this compare to its peers and the overall set of rep-accessible physicians?
• How often are physicians receiving paid meals for Qvar throughout the year (e.g., monthly, quarterly, annually)?
• Who were the most detailed prescribers and top paid speakers for Qvar in 2016?

Data Sources and Methodology:

• MDDetails leverages company-reported financial transaction data disclosed through CMS Open Payments. This data set captures all transfers of value (e.g., speaking fees, consulting fees, travel, education, and meals) made on behalf of a drug or device manufacturer to a physician. Currently, 42 months of longitudinal data is available – covering payments to more than 900,000 U.S. healthcare professionals.
• Over 1,400 paid interactions across 900 physicians made on behalf of Qvar were carefully examined to support our analysis. In addition, interaction data from 13 peer products (e.g. Advair, Aerospan, Arnuity, Asmanex, Breo, Cinqair, Dulera, Flovent, Nucala, ProAir, Spiriva, Symbicort, and Xolair ) was leveraged to provide benchmarking and market insights.
