Translation and language services to coordinate translations so respondents could participate in their native language to ensure full comprehension and engagement

An additional objective was to gain insight on the value of innovation derived from the product in each market. Specifically, to: The research was designed to ensure that decisions relating to service change / transformation taken by the client’s cardiovascular workstream were informed by ‘educated’ general public opinion. The intention was that this data would bring about measurable impact through immediate changes to care pathways, and identify scope for process improvement earlier in the patient journey, e.g. at the point of referral.The panel and recruitment teams used M3’s access to AMA licensed physicians to invite targeted oncologists to join the panel and consider participating in the research. Advertisements were also placed with Multiview to ask oncologists treating appropriate patients to participate in the study. Oncologists completing only part of the short survey were followed up with to complete questions over the phone. A senior project manager to ensure recruitment and fieldwork were delivered in a timely manner and to coordinate all stakeholders from design, to soft launch, and full launch

Testing conducted by Apple in September and October 2023 using pre-production 16‑inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M3 Pro, 12-core CPU, 18-core GPU, 36GB of RAM and 512GB SSD, and pre‑production 14-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M3 Pro, 12-core CPU, 18-core GPU, 18GB of RAM and 1TB SSD. 16-inch MacBook Pro systems tested with Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter (Model A2452), and 14-inch MacBook Pro systems tested with Apple 96W USB-C Power Adapter (Model A2166), both with USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable (Model A2363). Fast-charge testing conducted with drained MacBook Pro units. Charge time varies with settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary. Referral incentives and rewards: The company offering the referral programme defines the incentives or rewards that participants can earn. These rewards can vary but commonly include cash, discounts, gift cards, free products/services, or exclusive perks. Every survey invite will indicate how much you will earn for completing it. Every survey that will be offered to you will be specific to your profession, so there’s not a lot available. When you start working on a survey, you’ll first have to answer qualifying questions.

Patient recruitment was particularly crucial given the importance placed on the need for a representative sample. Physician members of M3’s proprietary panel were asked to refer patients as well as those that could be defined as ‘at risk’, across the four disease areas. Recruiters also used targeted social media campaigns to recruit additional attendees. One significant diversification from previous attempts at engaging ‘citizens’ was to remunerate the patients at all stages of engagement. This enabled the NHS to access a broader, fully representative sample of patients that fully met the objectives of the research. The scale of M3’s proprietary panel ensures that respondents meet all the screening criteria and are less likely to be routinely participating in real world studies, which is key to guaranteeing robust data. Start referring by sharing your unique referral link with your colleagues in healthcare and social network. While inviting them to register to the M3 panel, you may share your own experience of taking part in paid healthcare market research studies with M3 and what you think the benefits are. It is considered a good practice to mention this is a paid partnership. Testing conducted by Apple in September and October 2023 using pre-production 14‑inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M3 Pro, 12-core CPU, 18-core GPU, 36GB of RAM and 4TB SSD. Final Cut Pro 10.6.9 tested using a 1-minute picture-in-picture project with multiple streams of Apple ProRes 422 video at 8192x4320 resolution and 30 frames per second, as well as a 1‑minute picture-in-picture project with multiple streams of Apple ProRes 422 video at 3840x2160 resolution and 29.97 frames per second. Performance tests are conducted using specific computer systems and reflect the approximate performance of MacBookPro. While initially there was concern about the online briefings and how receptive the payers would be to this additional step, it was well-received by the payers and was a cornerstone to the success of the research. This step spared the client from wasting valuable interview time briefing the payer about the concept/offering that the treatment provides. From the payer’s perspective, they felt well-informed and knowledgeable from the start of the interview, allowing them to be more confident in their responses and spend more time focusing on providing the insight tied to the research objectives.
