Catch up on our latest insights
Catch up on the latest edition of HTA Quarterly
In this edition, we discuss the risks of relying on immature data for survival projections in oncology and the importance of selecting robust models to guide HTA decisions. We also explore key challenges and developments in HTA within the UK and Germany, including the impact of limited clinical evidence on NICE appraisals, with strategies to improve submission outcomes, and recent updates to Germany’s AMNOG dossier requirements, highlighting the evolution to trend-based estimates to better align benefit assessments with statutory health insurance patient populations.
Navigating the Canadian reimbursement landscape
Despite perceptions of a universal healthcare system, Canada’s medication reimbursement relies on both public and private payers, impacting market access for new therapies. In this video, Beth Koster, Director, Health Economics & Outcomes Research (HEOR), shares considerations for market access, including the need for early strategic planning and comprehensive evidence collection.
