Message Testing

Find the claims clinicians believe and act on

HCP message testing for pharma and biotech brand teams, with the physicians, NPs, PAs and pharmacists your brand plan targets. Only MLR-approved stimuli are shown, every transcript is screened for adverse events and every deliverable is de-identified.

In short

What is message testing with Carevoices?

Message testing with Carevoices shows draft claims, core messages and visual aids to the verified clinicians they target. AI-moderated interviews probe what each message means to them, whether they believe it and whether it would change a treatment conversation. You get de-identified transcripts and message-by-message evidence before the campaign locks.

The problem

Why does HCP message testing stall today?

Three things brand and insights teams run into when they test messages with clinicians.

01

Safety claims prompt adverse-event talk

Ask a clinician whether a safety claim rings true and they often answer with a case they treated. Every one of those mentions has to be caught and reported, in every language, or the study becomes a pharmacovigilance problem.

02

MLR review gates every stimulus

Claims, detail aids and campaign concepts go through medical, legal and regulatory review before any clinician sees them, and again for each revision. Without a clear record of what fielded, review questions pile up.

03

Scores say which message won, not why

A rating grid shows message B beat message A. It doesn't show which phrase lost credibility, which data point felt overstated, or what a specialist needs to hear before changing practice.

Compliance built in

Message testing built for MLR and PV review

Efficacy and safety messages can surface adverse events. These controls run on every study.

  • Only MLR-approved stimuli

    Your medical, legal and regulatory reviewers approve every message, claim and visual aid in the study plan. Interviews show nothing else, and revised messages go through the same approval before the next round.

  • AE screening, 24-hour reports

    Every transcript is screened for adverse events, with reports to your drug-safety team within 24 hours and a full reconciliation at study end, in every interview language.

  • AE disclosure in consent

    Participant consent includes the adverse-event disclosure the market-research codes require.

  • Your brand stays blinded

    Sponsor-blinded by default: participants never learn who commissioned the study. Messages can run unbranded or under a placeholder brand name.

  • De-identified deliverables

    Every deliverable is de-identified to the HIPAA Safe Harbor standard, with all 18 identifiers removed. Insights deliverables never include participant identities, and no audio or video is shared by default. Contact details reach the sponsor’s drug-safety team only if the clinician agrees to adverse-event follow-up; any unblinded work is agreed in the study plan.

FAQ

Common questions

HCP message testing is qualitative research that shows draft brand messages, claims and visual aids to the healthcare professionals they target, then probes how each one is understood, whether it is believed and whether it would change a treatment conversation. Pharma and biotech brand teams use it before launch and at each campaign refresh.
Physicians across roughly 30 specialties, including KOLs, plus NPs, PAs, pharmacists, nurses and allied health. Recruit from a verified network that includes 85%+ of US physicians, plus NPs, PAs and pharmacists, through our physician network partner. Nurses, pharmacists and allied health professionals through the healthcare-specific panels Carevoices integrates with. Screening can target specialty, practice setting and prescribing authority, so the sample matches your brand plan.
Every transcript is screened for adverse events, with reports to your drug-safety team within 24 hours and a full reconciliation at study end, in every interview language. Screening runs on every transcript, not a sample.
Yes. A second round runs under the same plan, so it can field as soon as your reviewers approve the revised stimuli.
De-identified transcripts and message-by-message evidence in your research repository, in standard formats your own analysis tools accept. Every study lands in one searchable research repository, alongside the past qual and quant you upload. Ask a question across all of it and get a synthesized answer that cites its sources.
A proposal within 24 hours of your brief, and results in 1–2 weeks from plan approval. Rare and low-incidence specialties can take longer, and the proposal says so before you approve the plan.
Pilots start at $12,000 and are quoted from your brief, because specialty, incidence and interview length set the cost of recruiting the right clinicians. Annual plans are sized by the number of interviews you want to complete in a year, and your pilot fee counts toward your first plan. Only completed interviews that meet our quality bar count toward your plan.
