The problem

Why aRMM gaps surface at the data lock, not when they happen

An educational programme runs in fourteen countries, each with its own national agreement, its own target prescriber list and its own clocks: a first wave within 30 days, new prescribers within a quarter, materials sent apart from promotional mailings. The evidence that it happened — distribution logs, courier receipts, card text, pharmacy panel extracts — arrives from each affiliate in its own format, by e-mail.

So the checking waits. A superseded patient card goes out to 38 prescribers in the July and August waves, and nobody sees the item code until someone reconciles the log months later. Then the data lock comes, and the risk management lead is pulling survey tables, drug utilisation results and fourteen country records together by hand to write the effectiveness evaluation for the PSUR — with every number to be traced back to its source.

How it works

How a country's evidence moves

Four agents check every country's evidence as it arrives and two more write the evaluation and the requests; the risk management lead decides each finding.

One country’s evidence, from upload to a signed evaluation

At 08:12 on Oct 7, the Poland affiliate uploads its Q3 evidence for the Talmirex educational programme — 24 days before the PSUR data lock. Here is what happens next, screen by screen, in the working solution.

  1. 01Morning

    Every country commitment, on one map

    Priya Raman · Global risk management lead

    Priya opens the solution: 3 programmes, 23 country commitments, PSUR data lock Oct 31 in 24 days. 9 of 14 countries are on track, prescriber reach is 94.6% and patient card coverage 90.7%. Poland is marked as a gap, with new evidence today.

    “Superseded patient card v2.0 sent to 38 prescribers.”

  2. 0208:12

    Three new files from the affiliate

    Marek Wójcik · Affiliate safety officer, Poland

    Marek uploads the Q3 distribution log, the courier receipts and a text comparison of patient card v2.0 against v3.0 through the affiliate portal. They sit beside the letter of agreement with the national authority, the target prescriber list and the pharmacy panel extract, ready to be checked.

    “3 new files arrived today at 08:12 from the Poland affiliate.”

  3. 03Run checks

    Four agents check the country

    The agents

    Evidence intake classifies the three files and attaches them to Poland. The distribution reconciler matches 812 dispatches to the 860 prescribers on the target list and checks item codes against version 3.0. The commitment tracker checks 4 clocks against the Jul 14 agreement, and the survey and utilisation analyst reads card coverage of 87.0% from the pharmacy panel.

  4. 047.2 seconds later

    Three findings, each with its source

    Distribution reconciler

    6 of 8 checks pass. The high finding: the national authority agreed patient alert card v3.0 on Jul 14, but the Jul 22 and Aug 5 waves list item code TX-PAC-PL-02 — version 2.0 — for 24 and 14 prescribers, and v2.0 lacks the heart-event and shingles wording. The medium finding: the Sep 18 new-prescriber wave to 52 physicians went out with a congress invitation.

    Every finding cites the log line and the agreement clause it rests on.

  5. 05Decided

    She decides each finding

    Priya Raman · Global risk management lead

    For each finding Priya chooses Ask the affiliate, Accept with a note, or Not an issue. Both distribution findings go to the affiliate. Card coverage at 87.0% is down from 91.2% in Q2 but still above the 85% threshold, so she accepts it with a note on the audit trail.

    Agents propose findings; only the risk management lead decides them.

  6. 06Drafted

    One request to the affiliate

    Affiliate request writer

    The request writer turns her decisions into one letter to Marek: send card v3.0 to the 38 prescribers with a cover letter asking them to replace v2.0 stock, and resend the guide and card to the 52 new prescribers as a stand-alone educational mailing — both by Nov 6. It is sent only when Priya presses Send.

    “The checks will run again as soon as they arrive.”

  7. 07Data locked Sep 30

    Is it working? Knowledge, behaviour, outcomes

    Survey & utilisation analyst

    612 prescribers in 8 countries answered the wave 2 survey (22.0% response). Three of five key messages meet the 80% threshold; the heart-event message is weakest at 74.1%, lowest in Poland at 68%. Drug utilisation data across 9,812 new users agree: 11.8% of patients aged 65 or over with heart risk factors started without a documented reason, against a 10% target.

    Each key message is reported separately, with n and a 95% confidence interval.

  8. 0841 seconds

    The effectiveness evaluation, drafted and cited

    Assessment writer

    From the risk management plan v5.0, both survey tables, the drug utilisation study, the outcome analysis and the 14 country records, the agents draft six sections — programme and objectives, reach, knowledge, prescribing behaviour, safety outcomes, conclusion and actions — with 19 citations. 7 of 11 success criteria are met.

  9. 09Lead review

    The verdict is hers to choose

    Priya Raman · Global risk management lead

    The draft suggests Partly effective and proposes actions: a targeted reminder on the heart-event message, a version 3.1 of the guide and card for agreement with the national authorities, and the country actions. Priya chooses the verdict — Effective, Partly effective or Not effective — and sends it to the QPPV.

    “Reach, card coverage and outcomes meet their criteria; prescriber knowledge of the heart-event message, patient knowledge of contraception and prescribing in older patients do not.”

  10. 10Signed

    The QPPV signs, and it is filed

    Dr. Maya Chen · EU QPPV

    Dr. Chen reviews the signer, the verdict and the criteria — 7 of 11 met — enters her password and signs. The meaning is recorded with the signature, the PSUR section and RMP v5.1 Part V are updated, and the country actions go to 4 affiliates.

    “I approve this effectiveness evaluation for inclusion in the PSUR and the risk management plan update.”

Built on the engine

6 agents. Each with one job, and hard limits.

Four agents check every country's evidence as it arrives and two more write the evaluation and the requests; the risk management lead decides each finding.

Evidence intake

Takes files from the affiliate portal, the risk minimisation mailbox and the survey vendor, decides what each one is — agreement, target list, distribution log, receipts, card text, survey or study table — and attaches it to the right programme and country.

  • Never discards a file; every version is kept
  • Unknown files go to a person, not a guess
Distribution reconciler

Matches every log line and receipt to the national target list and the versions the authority agreed, checks the channel is separate from promotional material, and explains each mismatch with the passages it rests on.

  • Every finding cites its source passage
  • Agents propose findings; people decide
Commitment tracker

Keeps a clock for every national commitment — first wave, quarterly new-prescriber waves, survey windows, PSUR data locks and REMS assessment dates — and alerts 7 days before and on the day a clock expires.

  • Clocks change only when an agreement changes
Survey & utilisation analyst

Reads survey vendor tables, pharmacy panel extracts, drug utilisation and outcome analyses, and computes every indicator with its confidence interval against the pre-set threshold.

  • Thresholds come only from the approved risk management plan
  • Shows n and a confidence interval with every percentage
  • Does not pool countries with different questionnaires
Assessment writer

Drafts the effectiveness evaluation — reach, knowledge, behaviour, outcomes, country gaps and actions — for the PSUR and the risk management plan, with a citation for every number.

  • No number without a citation
  • Proposes actions; the verdict is chosen by a person
Affiliate request writer

Turns the confirmed findings for a country into one clear request to the affiliate — what to send, why, and by when, with the due date from the commitment clock.

  • One item per finding the lead marked “Ask the affiliate”
  • Sent only after the lead presses Send
Risk management lead

Decides each finding. The agents propose; a named person decides.

Ask in plain words

Ask about any country, in plain words

Ask about any country, survey result or deadline — or say what to change. Answers come from the national agreements, distribution logs, receipts, survey results and study tables, with their sources.

Which countries are below the reach threshold?

Three commitments are under 90%: France · Talmirex at 85.9%, after 279 dermatologists were added on Aug 26; Czechia · Talmirex at 85.1%, with the first wave incomplete; and Poland · Corventa at 86.4%. Overall Talmirex reach is still 94.6%.

Why is the heart-event message below threshold?

Prescribers answered the heart-event message (KM3) correctly 74.1% of the time (95% CI 70.4–77.6), under the 80% threshold. It is the weakest message in all 8 countries — lowest in Poland (68%) and France (70%). Prescribing data agree: 11.8% of patients ≥ 65 with heart risk factors started without a documented reason, against a 10% target. The heart wording was only added in v3.0, so some prescribers still hold older guides.

Add a rule: flag evidence older than 45 days

Done. A country whose latest distribution evidence is older than 45 days is now shown as evidence missing. Running it now flags one country — Italy, whose latest log is from Aug 14 (54 days). The rule is on in Settings and recorded on the audit trail.

Draft the request to the Poland affiliate

To Marek Wójcik, two items by Nov 6: send patient card v3.0 to the 38 prescribers who received v2.0 on Jul 22 and Aug 5, asking them to replace old stock; and resend the guide and card to the 52 new prescribers as a stand-alone mailing, because the Sep 18 wave went with a congress invitation, which the agreement does not allow.

Questions

What risk management teams ask us.

What is a risk minimisation effectiveness evaluation?

It shows whether additional risk minimisation measures — such as a prescriber guide and a patient alert card — reached the right people, were understood, changed prescribing and protected patients. The solution measures reach, knowledge, behaviour and outcomes against the success criteria in your risk management plan and drafts the evaluation for the PSUR and the plan, with a citation for every number.

How does it track distribution of educational materials?

Each affiliate’s distribution log and courier receipts are matched to the national target prescriber list and the versions the authority agreed. It checks the first wave went out within 30 days of the agreement, new prescribers were reached within a quarter, and mailings were sent apart from promotional material.

Does it analyse survey and drug utilisation data?

Yes. The survey and utilisation analyst reads the survey vendor tables, pharmacy panel extracts, drug utilisation and outcome analyses, and reports each key message separately with n and a 95% confidence interval against the threshold. It does not pool countries with different questionnaires.

Does it handle a US REMS as well as EU programmes?

Yes. In the working solution a REMS sits beside two EU educational programmes, with its survey window and its 3-year FDA assessment date on the commitment clock, and a named REMS programme manager signs before submission.

Do people stay in control?

Yes. The agents propose findings; the risk management lead decides each one and presses Send before any request reaches an affiliate. The lead chooses the evaluation verdict, and the QPPV signs it with the meaning of the signature recorded.

Can affiliates use it directly?

Yes. Affiliate safety officers upload evidence and answer requests for their own country only. Their uploads are checked as soon as they press Submit, and evidence can also arrive through the risk minimisation mailbox.

Can we set our own thresholds and approvers?

Yes. Prescriber reach, card coverage, prescriber and patient knowledge thresholds come from your risk management plan and every change is versioned. Who confirms country gaps, who signs the evaluation and who signs the REMS assessment are settings.

How long does it take to go live?

The Agentic Solution Engine builds and deploys it from your requirements — your risk management plans, national agreements and a sample of affiliate evidence and survey results — and it goes live once every quality gate has passed. We will walk you through it on your own programme first.
