What is
a

Some of the main functionality in this type of report is that it provides analysis from eight different perspectives, including: 1) Patient requests by status, 2) Medical advisory inquiries, 3) YTD enrollees by product, 4) Medical advisory inquiries by product, 5) Enrollees by eligibility criteria, and 6) Medical advisory inquiries by method. You find an example of this type of report below.

When used as part of best practices in Product and Patient Program Departments, a company can improve its initiatives and service level, and it can reduce the chances that managers lack good field data when making their decisions.
