  • the method further includes identifying the available and/or preferred time units of the or each pharmaceutical representatives.
  • medical professionals includes personnel involved in medicine who prescribed pharmaceuticals, or who would be involved with the prescription of pharmaceuticals, to patients, including hospital staff, nurses, doctors, and the like.

  • the matching of available and/or preferred time units of medical professionals and pharmaceutical representatives is organised by a third party.
  • the available and/or preferred time units of the medical professionals are provided or advised or otherwise to the third party, who then arranges to match such time units with those of pharmaceutical representatives.
  • the third party adapted to match the available time units of medical professionals and pharmaceutical representatives may determine, select or pre-select the medical professionals and/or pharmaceutical representatives to be available at a meeting of same.
  • the medical professionals and/or pharmaceutical representatives may select or target members of the other parties to meet.
  • time unit in the present application relates to any form of time unit, such as an hour or hours or 'afternoon' or the like.
  • the present invention provides a number of benefits both to the medical professionals and to pharmaceutical representatives. To medical professionals, it provides the possibility of being remunerated or compensated for their time in seeing pharmaceutical representatives. It also allows the medical professional to be more selective of the time units made available, and ensures that their available time units are used to the best advantage by the pharmaceutical representatives. The medical professionals may also be able to select which companies they wish to see or not to see, and prevents accidental 'double calling' by representatives.
  • the benefits to pharmaceutical representatives include the knowledge that the medical professionals will be available for meetings, avoiding the common problem of arranged meetings being cancelled or postponed due to medical professionals overrunning with other meetings or events.
  • the pharmaceutical representatives can also use the matching of time units to provide better time management, and also use the meeting as monitoring tools for which medical professionals and when are seen. It should also reduce to pharmaceutical representatives the mileage and management time involved in organising and arranging their meetings with medical professionals, and provide much greater 'guaranteed' call rates in being able to see and properly advise medical representatives of the pharmaceuticals of interest.
  • the medical professionals may select who they wish to see in their available time units, or at least who they may not wish to see.
  • the present invention provides a method to significantly reduce wastage of time and effort by medical professionals and pharmaceutical representatives in meeting each other in the present ad-hoc arrangements, and provides benefits to both parties, in particular the possibility of remuneration to the medical professionals, and the possibility of co-ordinated, and un-fettered time for the pharmaceutical representatives to have the attention of the medical professionals.
