Abstract
A vendor-neutral methodology for verifying physician and HCP credentials in market-research sample — a four-tier evidence ladder from self-report to primary-source registry match, where verification happens across the respondent lifecycle, and how credentialing differs across EU, UK, and US markets. Grounded in the EphMRA Code, ESOMAR 37, and ISO 20252.
