Profiling

Feasibility
- Shown per market with a Robust / Moderate / Limited flag.

- Low-incidence and sub-specialty studies scoped case-by-case; recruit-to-order tops up thin cells in the smallest markets.
Methodology

Adverse-event (AE) reporting — healthcare

- AE-handling SOP, reconciliation logs and annual AE training are maintained.
Recruitment sources & incentives
- Physician referrals and peer nomination; verified professional opt-in via GVP registration; medical associations and societies; conference/in-person recruitment; vetted physician-network partners where GVP fields through alliances.
- No incentivised list-buying — members are recruited to research-only panels; purchased contact lists are never appended as consented members.
- Fair incentives: honoraria set at fair-market value by specialty and market, per ESOMAR/BHBIA guidance.
