Multiple gated HCP Sites on the same corporate platform
-
Hello, I’m currently working on creating a gated (2) website exclusively for HCPs to support a specific product. This new gated site would be hosted on the same corporate site as another gated HCP website that is already live but relates to a different product. The existing gated (1) site was previously validated by PAAB.
We want to create and submit this second gated HCP site (2) for PAAB approval. My two questions are:
-
Since both gated sites would be hosted on the same corporate website, does the corporate site need to be submitted again for review? For context, when we initially submitted the first gated HCP site (1) for PAAB approval, we were required to submit the corporate site as part of the process, and changes were made at the time to meet compliance standards. However, the corporate site hasn’t been modified since then.
-
If we submit the second gated site for PAAB approval, does the first gated site also need to be included in the process or validated again? Even though the first site relates to a different product and its PAAB approval might not be renewed, it shares the same corporate website as the second gated site.
Basically, I want to understand whether hosting two different gated HCP sites on the same corporate site introduces any additional requirements, particularly around "revalidating" the corporate site or the first gated site, which might not be renewed.
Thank you so much for your help!

Good Morning, @ayca
This is a complex question that appears to be review specific. It would be best answered in the context of the site that you’re referring too. A quick email to admin with the eFile number of the previous site and a description of how the new product content will be added (layouts are often extra helpful), should allow us to provide specific and accurate direction to this question.
As a general response, when content is changed on a PAAB approved page, the PAAB approval no longer stands and the copy has to be re-reviewed. Often when companies are looking to house multiple brands on a single page, or site, they’ll have a template reviewed that outlines the content blocks, layout, and how any additions will occur. This is not required but does help us flag issues about product expansion at the earlier stages.
When we’re talking about corporate sites, there may be content or linkage issues with brand specific placement. It’s likely that these issues were addressed in the review you mention above, however, sometimes the addition of another product adds a new wrinkle that has to be ironed out.

Thank you so much @jennifer-carroll for your detailed answer! I’ll probably send an email then with the eFile number and additional details soon.
