Report Highlights

In Europe and the US, the most commonly used online sources of health information are general health websites and physician websites. Physicians in the UK and the US generally spend more time using a single health information website than those physicians in France, Germany, Italy and Spain.

Physician targeted websites need to allow physicians to easily navigate through the site and find the information they need as quickly and easily as possible. The site should also foster recognition of the brand of the company, and retention tools should be used to maximize the number of physicians revisiting the site.

Physicians from both regions are also interested in seeing more product-specific information and treatment pattern information provided through this online channel.
