McKinsey’s 2030 vision: A challenge for medical affairs

McKinsey’s vision for Medical Affairs in 2030 envisions profound integration of digital tools, analytical innovation, evidence generation, and leadership transformation. However, this vision faces a critical challenge as recent lawsuit losses against the FDA have shifted the landscape. Previously, Medical Affairs held the exclusive right to share off-label information, but FDA losses prompted guidelines allowing sales reps, under supervision, to share such information. This regulatory change provides a more cost-effective approach for companies, challenging the traditional role of Medical Affairs representatives. Artificial intelligence is also emerging to supplement or replace certain functions of Medical Affairs in a compliant manner. The evolving landscape necessitates Medical Affairs to swiftly redefine its role with a strategic vision to avoid becoming sales-centric, potentially jeopardizing its educational and patient-centric functions. Without a clear vision, Medical Affairs risks devolving into sales roles, hindering its potential impact on patient outcomes. The legal and regulatory reality demands a careful alignment of Medical Affairs activities with compliance.
