Select an app section to get an inside look

Home welcomes the user to create an Insight.

Upon logging in with your personalized user identification and password, you will be brought to the Home screen.  You will select from several topics to begin structuring your customized Insight request.

Insight categories created by you, our client partners.

Our selection of Insight request choices was identified as those that touch on the most frequently discussed topics in the industry that impact critically important decisions for your business. Select your topic and you will be walked through a series of criteria upon which you will choose from a few dropdown options to customize your request to address your specific question or inquiry.  For example, the application will allow you to select which region in the world you are inquiring about, what type of payer you would like to survey, and what disease is being investigated.

Insights brings the user to the Insight Center.

When brought to the Insights tab, the user will see a listing of all requested Insights, those that are new and in process and those that have been completed.

The Insights tab serves as a personal logbook for the Insight requests that have been submitted by the user.

Once a user has requested an Insight, the Insight Center keeps track of requests and progress by the bio research team. The Insight Center shows at the top of the screen the Insights that have been completed, followed by new Insights in process and those still pending completion. For completed Insights, users can easily review the responses which may consist of text only, attachment only, or both. And for submitted requests, users can see specific details such as hours remaining until the response is due; and, can access the capability of cancelling or duplicating the Insights, as necessary.

Insight Groups are up-to-date, secure and dynamic, allowing bio’s exclusive research to reach a larger internal audience. The Donations tab sets bio apart by providing a service for users to give back to a charity of their choosing. Each time a user makes an Insight request, bio donates dollars to the selected cause. On the Bulletin Board, users can read comments and articles; study charts and data; and, link to other research-based websites.

More navigates users to an informational tab, with help for new subscribers.

The More tab brings new users to an animated tutorial that provides general information on bio for the free user, and a “quick start” tutorial for the subscribed user to begin creating Insight requests immediately.

The first selection in More allows the users to click on Watch the Video to learn about bio. For the free user, the video will provide an overview of the features bio offers and information on how to learn more about becoming a subscribed user. For the newly subscribed user, the video will act more as a “quick start” guide for creating a new Insight request. The Tutorial selection is followed by the company’s Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions, and Contact instructions.

Reviews
on bio

“Before bio, we would have to develop a statement of work on every project, large or small. For the smaller projects where we simply needed a few key questions addressed, we were spending an inordinate amount of time on paperwork and adding to the time to get answers. With our subscription to bio, we are expecting to have access to an affordable tool throughout the year to gather Insights on important clinical, pricing and contracting matters, whenever we need them.”

SVP Market Access,
Pharmaceutical Manufacturer

“Our day to day business constantly requires answers to questions that we do not always have easy access to: reimbursement landscape outside of the U.S., competitive product profiles, physician reaction to potentially new product improvements. bio will be our solution to getting these answers conveniently. We know we will be able to count on the quality of information and Insights, and know we will receive them when we need them. The use of this service is expected to play an important role in supporting marketing activities.”

Senior Director, Brand Marketing,
Medical Device Manufacturer

“As we consider investing in early round financing of various healthcare start-ups, we typically have a few questions that require external assistance. We most notably are seeking Insights on international implications for a specific product or service. With the anticipated use of bio, within our team, we could quickly design a panel survey with a few key questions within multiple European markets that will allow us to complete the financial process with a higher level of comfort.”
