Schlesinger Launches PayerPlus Healthcare Panel

US-based fieldwork group Schlesinger Associates has launched a new panel called PayerPlus, which offers access to executive-level clinical and business decision makers and influencers across the healthcare market.

Schlesinger has a network of fourteen focus group facilities in the US, and also owns Paris-based fieldwork services agency ConsuMed Research and focus group facilities provider Passerelles; London firm The Research House; and German focus group facility provider Schmiedl Marktforschung.

To support its new panel, the firm has set up the 'PayerPlus Center of Excellence' - a team that studies market behaviour among healthcare decision-makers and identifies changes that will affect panel members and their recruitment.

Anne Hedde (pictured), EVP of Schlesinger Interactive, comments: 'Our PayerPlus panel provides a one-stop recruitment solution for the stakeholders and our PayerPlus Center of Excellence monitors the US care-delivery system as it continues to reshape at a local, regional and national level and considers the implications for research in the pharmaceutical and healthcare marketplace.'
