Partnership with others: a) Local - interhospital exchange of
doctors

Partnership with others: a) Local - interhospital exchange of
doctors - interhospital exhange of
technologists for training, updates and techniques interchange

Partnership with others: Philippine Society of Nuclear
Medicine: interhospital agreement (consortium
training
program?)

Partnership with others: Philippine Society of Nuclear Medicine: Specialty hospitals i.e. heart center, lung
center, kidney center

Other training hospitals lack some of the specialties that the other hospitals commonly see!

Other training hospitals lack some of the specialties that the other hospitals commonly see!
Sharing of training material Doctors are made to rotate in different hospitals to
expose them to other procedures
![Page 12: Strategies for Promoting Nuclear Medicine in Developing Countries](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55612f1bd8b42a8e578b58ff/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Partnership with others: Local partnerships:
Regional partnerships: exhange of
doctors/technologists for updates, techniques sharing
or training

-continual quality improvements of different hospitals will be shared through this media.
Continual Quality Improvements (CQI): cost effective work simplification customer satisfaction is
thrust

Publication of a Newsletter or gazette
CQI …doing the right thing right the first time all the time!
If the technologists and doctors have this in mind, they produce quality work thus there will be no repeats or rework of test procedures ergo no wastage of resources (time, money, supplies, manpower)

Promotion of Nuclear Medicine Procedures
Giving lectures to clinicians for their awareness of nuclear diagnostic tests: PSNM “Outreach Program”
![Page 20: Strategies for Promoting Nuclear Medicine in Developing Countries](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55612f1bd8b42a8e578b58ff/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Promotion of Nuclear Medicine Procedures
Giving lectures to clinicians for their awareness of nuclear diagnostic tests
Handouts/ brochures re: nuclear medicine procedures for doctors and patients (It gives them an opportunity to learn)
![Page 21: Strategies for Promoting Nuclear Medicine in Developing Countries](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55612f1bd8b42a8e578b58ff/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Promotion of Nuclear Medicine Procedures
Giving lectures to clinicians for their awareness of nuclear diagnostic tests
Handouts/ brochures re: nuclear medicine procedures for doctors and patients (It gives them an opportunity to learn)
Showing video tapes or posters in TV/radio programs

SHARE MARKETING STRATEGIES!
![Page 23: Strategies for Promoting Nuclear Medicine in Developing Countries](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55612f1bd8b42a8e578b58ff/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
SHARE MARKETING STRATEGIES!I - Identifying group to focus on (patient, insurance company,
hospital, referring doctor) - low cost and patient satisfactionM - modify or influence behavior by giving them information on
nuclear medicine (show them what you do and how you do it)A - advertise nuclear medicine services through brochures or
handouts (service and treatment provided)G - Giving (and finding out) what they want - patients want to
get better and find out what is wrong with them, they like quickservice, pleasant, qualified, trained and professional staff and nice clean environment.
E – Education of customers - referring doctors and patients are your customers - giving lectures or free clinics

Introduction of new techniques/technologies
Share with the group and standardize!

Lack of training programs and proper accreditation!
No formal school for NM technologists Starting this year, formation of a one
year course for NM technologists in one of the universities in Manila

Other Possibilities:
Facilitating regular supply of cost effective radionuclides (Indigenous regional supply and new sources of supply) by promoting regional cooperation in the development of radiopharmaceuticals.

Other Possibilities:
Facilitating regular supply of cost effective radionuclides (Indigenous regional supply and new sources of supply) by promoting regional cooperation in the development of radiopharmaceuticals.
Introducing new and emerging cost effective diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine techniques.

Issues: Low socio-economic status in several
countries of the region. Competing demands from other
technologies Low accessibility and poor communication
in some countries Misplaced nuclear phobia. Anything
nuclear is wrong and get destructive, hence untouchable.
High initial capital cost and running cost Rapid development of technology.
