Additionally, it offers healthcare professionals access to educational trainings designed to enhance and improve knowledge and skills for delivering patient-centered care to people with cancer. LIVESTRONG, as demonstrated through its various training programs for clinicians, recognizes the importance and need for ongoing education for oncology nurse navigators and supports the ONA Navigation Summit in its goal to provide high-quality oncology navigation education to these individuals who treat patients with cancer.

ONA is privileged to partner with this influential and forward-thinking organization as it facilitates expanding the reach of education to improve oncology practice and ultimately patient care. In a joint effort to share expert information, the new affiliation between ONA and the LIVESTRONG Foundation seeks to put the cancer patient and survivor first.

Grow with MPR as It Changes to Journal Size

NEW YORK, April 11, 2017—Haymarket is excited to announce that its drug compendium, Monthly Prescribing Reference (MPR), will be transitioning to a journal-sized (A-size) publication in June 2017. After 32 years as a digest-sized, comprehensive prescribing reference resource for clinicians, MPR is increasing the size of its print product to better serve its wide audience of healthcare practitioners and to enhance messaging from advertising partners.

Monthly Prescribing Reference is heavily utilized and referenced more than 9.2 million times each month by clinicians looking for information to make the optimal prescribing decision for their patients.¹ “By changing Monthly Prescribing Reference from a digest-size reference to a journal-size reference, we aim to increase opportunities for MPR to bring more informative and educational product messaging from to our audience of multispecialty physicians and prescribers at the point of care,” explained Jenny Ko, PharmD, Vice President and Publisher of MPR. Pharmaceutical advertisements will be larger and, in turn, messaging will be more impactful. With the new journal-sized format, advertisers can save time, money, and effort in the ad creation and review process. In addition, the new format will allow for the presentation of more news content and new product information coupled with the added benefit of being easier to use and read.

Monthly Prescribing Reference has continually proven itself as a leader in keeping prescribers up to date on treatment modalities by providing the right information at the right time. More than 75% of MPR users are comparing drugs and making prescribing decisions when they consult MPR, and 87% refer to the publication at least weekly and more than 9 times per day.¹This frequency facilitates brand awareness and drives prescription lift through an audience that generates more than 23 million prescriptions each year.²MPR has evolved with the changing information landscape where drug references have become increasingly available via websites and mobile apps. Although digital resources provide clinicians with the prescribing tools that they need at the point of care, more than 98% of users report accessing the MPR print edition in their consultation rooms, office, or on their desk.³

Haymarket Partnership With NFID Highlights Commitment to Infectious Disease Prevention

NEW YORK, January 13, 2017— Haymarket Media has partnered with the National Foundation of Infectious Diseases (NFID) to forge a content-share relationship to further the message of infectious disease prevention and treatment, which is a primary objective of both the NFID and the digital healthcare resource, Infectious Disease Advisor. The NFID is a leading nonprofit organization founded in 1973 and dedicated to educating healthcare professionals and the public about the causes, prevention, and treatment of infectious diseases. The NFID mission aligns with that of Infectious Disease Advisor in their goal to educate and inform healthcare professionals about infectious diseases across the lifespan, with an emphasis on disease prevention.

Content will include sample outreach messages regarding updated NFID resources. Most currently, Infectious Disease Advisor will promote the NFID’s resources created to educate healthcare professionals on the burden of influenza and respiratory syncytial virus in older adults. Materials developed include two reports based on expert roundtables held in the summer of 2016, “Call to Action: Reinvigorating Influenza Prevention in US Adults Age 65+” and “NFID Report: Respiratory Syncytial Virus in Older Adults: A Hidden Annual Epidemic,” as well as infographics on both of these timely and important topics.

Haymarket will share these NFID resources with their healthcare professional audiences via the Infectious Disease Advisor website (infectiousdiseaseadvisor.com) and across the entire multi-brand network of websites, as well as in editorial newsletters and through social media platforms. Haymarket will continue to pursue similar content-share relationships and opportunities to provide its healthcare professional audience with information needed to inform clinical practice and improve patient care, as well as to enhance user engagement on Infectious Disease Advisor and all brands within Haymarket Medical Network.

Haymarket Media Inc Partners with Decision Support in Medicine (DSM) For Deeper User Engagement

NEW YORK, November 18, 2016— Haymarket Media Inc has formed a partnership with Decision Support in Medicine (DSM) to integrate the DSM clinical decision support content into the 13 brands within the Haymarket Medical Network.

The DSM database covers thousands of diseases in multiple therapeutic categories, written by physician experts in each field of medicine. The information is updated regularly to inform healthcare professionals (HCPs) with what they need to know before, during, and after a patient consult. Every disease-specific section offers step-by-step recommendations and succinct direction on screening, diagnosis, and treatments—all of which is supported by the latest evidence-based data. Each section in the DSM database discusses the screening, presentation, differential diagnosis, pathophysiology, recommended testing, treatment options and information for the patient and caregivers.

With this partnership, Haymarket intends to provide the HCPs that visit the brands in the Haymarket Medical Network with a more robust and comprehensive offering of clinical information when they are engaged with news and features about the same disease. The DSM material will be integrated within relevant content on each of the Network’s websites, where HCPs can navigate through this reference material and benefit from a deeper scope of clinical data without leaving the brand’s website. The expectation is that by supplementing Haymarket’s content with a thorough reference like DSM, HCPs will be able to access quick and concise clinical data and more efficiently treat their patients.

“Our clinical brands already provide timely, evidence-based information to hundreds of thousands of HCPs each month,” said Jim Burke RPh, SVP of Digital Products at Haymarket. “We have also integrated a comprehensive drug database and, more recently, CME opportunities for HCPs into all of our brands. The partnership with DSM is another step in Haymarket’s commitment to deliver timely and relevant content to HCPs, with the goal of improving patient outcomes.”
