For a pharmaceutical product, medical device, or therapeutic procedure to achieve reimbursement and widespread adoption, it should answer unmet needs in the healthcare market. With over 15 years of experience in health economics, evidence synthesis, and as healthcare professionals, our team supports our clients in conducting structured and targeted literature reviews to identify the needs of the market and assess the solutions that they can offer to health consumers. Our literature reviews also allow us to assess whether a new pharmaceutical product, medical device or therapeutic procedure will meet those needs. Such literature reviews focus on the following indicators, among others:

• Burden of illness assessment: Assessing the rate of morbidity, costs and worldwide mortality rate associated with particular conditions and diseases allows us to better understand their global impact. Our team assesses the burden of illness for the condition or disease that your health technology has been developed to address, thus demonstrating its necessity and added value to the global healthcare market.

• Unmet needs assessment: What are the unmet needs that your technology helps to address? By performing an unmet needs assessment, our experts provide you with justified arguments as to why your health product, device or service has a positive economic, health and social impact for your target market.

We also conduct targeted reviews of previous HTA submissions and clinical guidelines. Reviews of previous submissions help our clients better understand the benefits of their own technology compared to existing products. Additionally, a review of clinical guidelines allows our clients to assess how their technology fits in with, or may impact, existing guidelines. Such reviews not only enable our clients to better assess competition, but also to better place their products and services for optimal market access.
