Spanish term or phrase: VM
Hola!

Tengo aqui un especie de cuestionario tal vez médica, no lo se, no hace referencia a ningún tipo de medicina en concreta, sino hace referencia al médico. Lo que no se es que significa "VM".

Dice: Intenta que el grupo saque conclusiones con respecto a si el VM ha planificado la visita y tiene objetivos claros sobre la misma, Los conocimientos y la argumentación del VM, y ¿Conoce el Vm los datos básicos personales del médico?

¿Alguién sabe a que se refiere VM?

Muchas gracias!

Ejemplo: Medical sales representatives, or reps as they often called, are a key link between pharmaceutical companies and medical and healthcare professionals. They work strategically to increase the awareness and use of a company's pharmaceutical and medical products in settings such as general practices, primary care trusts and hospitals.

Based in a specific geographical location, and usually specialising in a particular product or medical area, they try to ensure that formularies contain their product. They may also make presentations and organise group events for healthcare professionals, as well as working with contacts on a one-to-one basis.
