Companies, including start-ups, are usually focused solely on the development of the product and/or the technical platform in the early days. As understandable and important these aspects are, if they don’t start to think about their public communications strategy from the very beginning, they might be in danger of failing.                                                           

Already in the very early stages of the development of pharmaceuticals or med tech products, companies need to think about the following key points: 

Will patients need and want the new product?

Will physicians prescribe it?

Will payers pay for it?

 

And thus they should come up with a convincing value story towards all stakeholders as only if they could convince all of these, investors will see the potential return of investment! But ultimately, all of that needs to be communicated… The reimbursement veteran Dr. Stefan Walzer these and more aspects around (global and local) communication with the communication expert Dr. Arne Näveke.

New methods such as diagnostics need to be assessed and the included in the reimbursement catalogue in the outpatient setting in Germany. However, key question remains which requirements are needed for such an evaluation and who is responsible for it. In some instances the responsible body is a sub-committee of the German federal Committee (G-BA) the so-called evaluation committee. But how does that body come to a conclusion and what do they really assess. How does price setting work in such an environment.

 

The reimbursement veteran Dr. Stefan Walzer discussed all of these questions and many more secrets with the Head of the arbitration board of the before-mentioned evaluation committee, Prof. Jürgen Wasem.

How to optimize commercialisation of innovative life science products, Dr. Kasia Hein-Peters?

Even though there are great accelerators and a lot of innovative product ideas, only very few products actually make it to the market and are commercially successful. What is the reason behind that and even more important how could this situation be improved?

In this podcast episode, Dr. Stefan Walzer and Dr. Kasia Hein-Peters are discussing the necessity for an overarching business and company strategy approach. In health care this is sometimes referred to a lifecycle approach, the invented approach by Dr. Kasia Hein-Peters is called DIVE. Within these approaches, all stakeholders would always need to be captured and dealt with – clinical development, regulatory and payers.

The #marketaccess veterans Dr. Stefan Walzer and Dr. Jamie Cross are discussing the principles as well as some very specific details.

How will the US Inflation Reduction Act change pricing of pharmaceuticals, Anita Burrell?

Klicken Sie auf den unteren Button, um den Inhalt von player.captivate.fm zu laden.

The Inflation Reduction Act in the US will change fundamental how the US pharmaceutical industry works. 

The IRA will negotiate their own prices for Medicare and Medicaid, which will have the result, that they will not pay the same prices in the future anymore.

With Medicare the government directly funds pharmaceuticals for 65+ years old population.

With Medicaid the government fund low income and other vulnerable populations.

Given, that the private insurance sector will follow the lead of government negotiated prices, all prices will decrease.

Revenues in the US will decline, and it will be interesting to see, what that will mean economically and in terms of availability of pharmaceuticals for the US and the global market?

Please enjoy the discussion of market access veterans Dr. Stefan Walzer and Anita Burell MBA on this major change in the major market for pharmaceuticals.

Since the original publication of this podcast, AI has received enormous public attention, and we have also seen an amazing increase in performance. This makes this discussion even more relevant – with this REPOST we want to give you the opportunity to hear it, in case you missed the first publication.

Dr. Stefan Walzer, market access expert, and his guest Dr. Andree Battes, expert in artificial intelligence (AI), are discussing the future of market access within the health care industry. How could AI support market access planning, submissions and negotiations, especially with the ever-increasing data? How could AI be beneficial in defining an optimal price anchor? And finally, would AI substitute the market access manager roles within the industry?

Is there a place for Real World Evidence in HTA, Dr. Karen Facey?

Klicken Sie auf den unteren Button, um den Inhalt von player.captivate.fm zu laden.

A strong evidence package is important as a solid base for health technology assessments and the following price negotiations with health care payers. It is widely agreed, that randomized controlled trials are the gold standard in HTA, but there are also strong advocates of real-world evidence as a complementary way to measure the effectiveness of treatments. 

One of these advocates is Dr. Karen Facey and so Dr. Stefan Walzer brought her on the podcast and asked all the tough questions about real world evidence and the reality with payers around the world. Are there opportunities in such RWE data or is that a dead-end?
