So called "trusted sources" like those in the marketing/PR depts and the account ad agency for the most part are pretty clueless in my experience with domain possibilities- It's just beyond the average corporate hacks comprehension. It's also beyond the medical ad agency scope as they don't see the money possibilities...yet
At least if someone selling a halfway decent and highly relevant bunch of names which will increase bottom line if utilised properly (they're just another effective sales tool)- and explain why they will - very clearly, almost like speaking to a child, they might get the idea...Tell them why the marketing dept and the ad agency doesn't understand the domain concept (especially type in generic) and you might get an ear.
Get the right key person and hey remember the cliched: nothing ventured, nothing gained.
