Market Trends to Watch for Health Systems and Their Specialty Pharmacies
The future looks bright for the integrated specialty pharmacy model – for health systems, providers, and most importantly, for patients.
In addition to that, the quality of the product matters to people. Of the people surveyed, 58 percent want to know that the product is something the market actually needs. Competitive compensation and work-life balance also ranked high on the list of needs for employees.
“Although everyone can’t land Medtronic, Stryker, or Johnson & Johnson jobs, there are plenty of other medical companies with solid product lines that offer competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits,” said Robyn Melhuish, Communications Manager at MedReps.com. “Medical sales jobs can be found at companies of all types and sizes, and the best medical sales reps have an abundance of opportunities available to them.”
