6. Half of Americans (51%) have had their current health insurance plan for fewer than
three years – and 1 in 10 consumer have had their current plan for less than a year.
American Health Insurance Reality
Please indicate how long you have had
your CURRENT health insurance plan?
7. Nearly half (45%) have maintained the same PCP for three or fewer years; 12% have
seen their current doctor for less than a year.
…and Have a (Lack of) Doctor Relationship
Please indicate how long you have been
able to maintain the same (or your
preferred) primary-care physician?
8. So PR is the New Primary Care Facilitator
Younger Americans have an Amazon Prime-like relationship with primary
care – it’s the function and not the personal connection
Accessible care – walk-in-clinics and pharmacy-care centers – reflect
convenience and cost life priorities
Formulary status – Pathways – a key consideration for marketing investment
and audience activation
Prescription pad is now a “suggestion pad.”
11. Innovation drives healthcare advances
– Patient monitoring technologies
– Drug delivery technologies
– Compliance assisting tech reminders
– Technologies make access easier and less complex
– Software that improves patient-care throughput
– Medicines that sustain life

Big Data: “Average Patient” Leverages the Many

15. Do Not Generalize
− There is no “average patient”
− One size does not fit all (e.g., cancer therapies)
− Heterogenetic drug class response (anti-depressants, NSAIDs*)
− “Personalized medicine” is a buzzword
− Formularies: coverage decisions are about actuary tables

our vets and others?
24. CHALLENGE
Some 53,000 people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer each year. Tragically, 75 percent present with advanced disease and perish within a year. Only
eight percent are expected to survive more than five years. Let’s Win is a recently launched online pancreatic cancer patient community created to collect and
share science-driven treatment options that go beyond the traditional “standard of care.” Its founders are an advocacy coalition that includes the Lustgarten
Foundation, World Pancreatic Cancer Coalition and Stand up to Cancer.
STRATEGY
Finn Partners’ introduced Let’s Win at the American Association for Cancer Research Special Conference on Pancreatic Cancer in early May and the
American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting in June. The continuing campaign will increase pancreatic cancer awareness and Let’s Win as a first-of-its-kind
crowdsourcing platform enabling patients, doctors, and researchers to share live-time science-driven information on potentially life-saving treatments – a vital
step in advancing science and patients’ lifespans. It’s mission includes advocating for additional research, access to innovation and highlighting new science.
RESULTS
• Since the 2016 summer launch the Let’s Win’s website received more than 10,000 page views and nearly 500 subscribers.
• In-person media meetings/interviews with The New York Times, Prevention, SHAPE, MedCity News
• White House invitation to join in the national Cancer Moon Shot Summit in June; participated on-the-ground in Washington, DC
• Let’s Win-led Twitter chat resulted in 1.9 million impressions and more than 100 participants – including American Cancer Society Board
leaders
• Leading clinical experts have joined the Let’s Win medical advisory board to advocate for going beyond the “standard of care” pathways
