Access Strategy & Policy in Context

Why it Matters

From pre-launch planning to patient support, Medicus provides pricing, access, and policy support throughout the product life cycle.

Identifying value

At the intersection of healthcare economics and market access, Medicus helps clients understand the value of their therapies in an ever-changing treatment landscape. We review existing evidence, conduct novel analyses to fill gaps, and use primary research to test hypotheses with economic decision-makers.

Demonstrating value

To optimize success for new therapies, manufacturers often need to generate novel data and fill evidence gaps. We partner with clients to identify, prioritize, and plan evidence generation efforts throughout the product life cycle to make sure that value is not left on the table.

Delivering value

As novel products reach the market, manufacturers face challenging decisions related to product pricing and market access. We conduct innovative quantitative and qualitative market research to reduce uncertainty for our clients and inform strategic decisions.

Communicating value

As treatment decisions become more complex, it is essential that manufacturers effectively communicate the value of their therapies to diverse stakeholders. We help our clients communicate the value of their products through economic value dossiers, peer-reviewed publications, and market research presented at industry conferences.
