the price of iqvia database used to be over one million? According to the use of functional modules, the charges are different. Please consult their customer service for details.
when it comes to the price of IQVIA database, it's interesting to say that the unit price of domestic milk powder is too low to sell, but the sales volume will increase as the price increases. This shows that product price is not the only criterion to measure product value. Often between product price and product value, people care more about the value that the product can bring them, followed by product price.
if the price of IQVIA database is assumed to be 2 million per year, it doesn't mean that the value of IQVIA database is 2 million, and judging the value of a medical database often depends on what it can bring to users.
A high-value medical database can not only help pharmaceutical companies more comprehensively investigate market data and information to help strategic decision-making; It can also help medical workers to work more efficiently and reduce unnecessary waste of resources. On the contrary, a low-value medical database can not only create value, but also cause irreversible losses to pharmaceutical companies, such as incomplete, inaccurate and slow updating data, which leads to misjudging the market situation and making wrong decisions.
The core of judging whether a database is a high-value medical database is reflected in product function level, data level, application scenarios, value-added services and other dimensions.
today, the author makes a multi-dimensional analysis on product composition, data, application scenario, update, advantages and disadvantages, price, value-added services, social evaluation and other aspects of IQVIA (formerly IMS) database to help you have a new understanding of it.
in order to make it easier for people to understand the drug database of IQVIA (formerly IMS) more intuitively, the author introduces a drug database named pharnexcloud, which has the widest customer coverage in China at present, as a comparison.
1. product composition
IQVIA (formerly IMS) drug database: it consists of three sections: business consultation, drug research and development, and comprehensive service.
Rong Yun pharmaceutical database (pharnexcloud) consists of ten sections, including drug research and development database, listed drug database, drug sales database, market information database, consistency evaluation database, raw material drug database, medical device database, production inspection database, rational drug use database and medical literature.
2. Data sources
Both of them involve thousands of data sources, including but not limited to (① medical information: laboratory research, internal meetings, professional reports, patents, trademarks, technical implementation documents, academic conferences, technical reports, scientific journals, documents, etc. ② Medical database: heterogeneous resource platform, medical big data processing platform based on cloud computing and cloud storage, etc. ③ Official medical data: institutions, information, corporate announcements and reports, medical conferences, news information, investor pressure drop, annual reports of companies, medical and health institutions in official website, pharmaceutical companies in official website, medical journals and other official resources. )
3. Data display results
We will compare the most available data of IQVIA database in China (China Hospital Drug Statistics Report CHPA? ) and pharnexcloud? An intuitive comparison of (national hospital sales data)
IQVIA database (China hospital drug statistics report)? Based on 9454 hospitals (≥1 beds), the sample design covers 255 cities. There are only about 1 sample hospitals, and the total number that can be estimated is about 8.
IQVIA database contains more than 8, pieces of global medical transaction information;
pharnexcloud database (national hospital sales data), which is based on the sample design of 1, hospitals (second-class and above hospitals), covering 24 provinces and all key urban areas in China and sampling more than 2,2 by layers. Through the hierarchical amplification of professional calculation models, more than 9, sample hospitals can be estimated. This is the coverage scale that other databases at home and abroad can't match.
the global medical transaction information of pharnexcloud database is 19,653 (the author has insufficient authority, and can only find the data from 221 to now), so it can be inferred that the global medical transaction information data of Pharnexcloud is also higher than that of IQVIA database.
