MEDTECH AND PHARMA MARKETS

Changes Over the Last Decade

 
 
 
 

Over the last decade, we have seen the Medtech industry converging towards the drug industry in terms of revenue and requirements.

The authorities have become increasingly stringent in terms of regulatory and reimbursement for all devices.

Reduction of healthcare expenditures is a real concern in Europe and North America. Price cuts affects drugs and devices.

The device industry must now be prepared to demonstrate clinical efficacy and cost effectiveness of its products with both high quality data and a high level of evidence.

Market Access has become a new strategic function within medical device companies. Regulatory and Reimbursement are integral and critical elements of all healthcare companies in Europe, including medical devices companies and can no longer be managed separately from Marketing.
