Healthcare

Tom Rich’s healthcare experience runs both broad and deep – there is almost no healthcare area in which he has not worked.  He has conducted research into nearly every OTC category, and has many years’ experience in a variety of pharma categories as well.  This has provided him with a great deal of understanding about how to apply new research technologies to healthcare issues, including biometrics, online research tools, and qual/quant tools. Nearly all healthcare research centers upon decision-making – with providers choosing among possible therapeutic approaches, and patients choosing among providers or deciding whether or not to include alternative therapies in their treatments, etc.  Understanding decision making requires a rigorous approach to research that employs analytic tools and techniques.
