The Problem
There is a growing need to build a community of physicians and healthcare providers that can be accessed online.
- 63% of pulmonologists want pharmaceutical companies to provide science-based education resources.
- Research indicates correlation between non-promotional demand and and pharmaceutical products is very low.
- 61% of gastroenterologists believe that professional, informative videos can guide their clinical decisions.
The Solution
We set out to create Medhub as a powerful portal that offers unbridled effectiveness in providing information well beyond what has been delivered beyond pharmaceutical reps so far.
The aim was to provide content and services beyond mere promotion and offer value using a dedicated HCP portal. This included specialized content that is easily accessible for physicians.

Drupal was the ideal choice for portal development. The immense functionality demanded that we use flexible and highly responsive enterprise-class software to ensure speed and usability.

How did we do it?
The “Mediahub” portal is a highly advanced portal that not only caters to a supportive and user friendly solutions but also blends the needs of all the stakeholders.
Next, we wanted to enhance the user experience, not just for the pharma user but also for the physician. By meeting both ends the HCP portal portrays a high value commodity for the pharmaceutical industry and the physician.
