Our speaker sessions:


Spotlight session

8th of November, 13:30 – 14:30
The Economics of Survival: A Discussion on the Role of Health Policy, Environmental Policy, & Economic Policy in Healthcare Decision Making

Our moderator

Richard Charter, Vice President MedTech Market Access – Europe & Asia Pacific

If healthcare systems were a country, they would collectively be the 5th largest emitter of greenhouse gases globally. Healthcare decision makers are already grappling with increased demand for healthcare, and highly constrained budgets. However, unless we act immediately the climate emergency will quickly supersede both challenges. As with public health policy, environmental policy is highly influenced by economic decision makers. This panel will have a robust discussion on the intersection of health, environmental, and economic policy and how to enable more sustainable healthcare systems.

Forum session

8th of November, 11:45 – 12:45
HTA & Public Procurement of Medtech Solutions: Building a Bridge for Better Decision Making

Our panelist

Richard Charter, Vice President MedTech Market Access – Europe & Asia Pacific

The objectives of this panel are threefold: first, to update and inform any stakeholder in the Medical Device and Diagnostic ecosystem on current practices involving the usage of HTA reports by procurement decision makers based on a systematic literature review conducted by MD&D SIG members and gaps in knowledge – how procurement uses (or does not use) HTA, and whether HTA uses procurement for their respective decision-making processes. Second, foster an active discussion of research plans to address these knowledge gaps through survey of stakeholders and offer joining this discussion an opportunity to engage in this future research. Third; to engage the panelists and audience how this interaction should evolve going forward. This forum will leave 20 minutes for open discussion after introductory comments from the speakers. Group discussion will be encouraged.

Issue panel

9th of November, 10:00 – 11:00
External Control Arms, Is It the Way to Go?

Our moderator

Catia Proenca, Director in Market Access – RWE
Our speaker
Rajat Mukherjee, VP Adv. Statistics and Data Science

The growing implementation of Single Arm Trials (SAT) with External-Control Arms (ECA) has been the subject of heated debate with some advocating its use when traditional RCTs are unfeasible, while others fear that it is a means to accelerate timelines and limit costs at the expense of robust quality of evidence. Contrasting perspectives on the different uses and applications of ECA will be discussed.

Podium session

7th of November, 16:45PM – 17:00PM (Part of Podium Session “Key Trends in HTA Policy: Present and Future”)
Potential Areas of Focus for the Future EU HTA Methodology: Discrepancies between EUnetHTA Vs National Evaluations
Our speaker
Nuria Rodriguez García, Director, Access and Pricing Europe

The EU HTA framework adopted in 2021 will build on previous EUnetHTA cooperation with the aim to make health technologies more readily available to EU patients through a centralized HTA process. This will ensure faster and predictable processes and avoid duplication of efforts and discrepancies in assessments. The aim of this research is to identify the areas where evaluations between EUnetHTA and country HTA differed and understand whether these areas have driven an impact on the national HTA outcomes.Our research focused on previous EUnetHTA relative effectiveness assessments (REAs) (2016-2021), and corresponding national assessment reports in at least 3 of the selected countries: France, Germany, Italy and Spain. A framework was developed to assess the discrepancies and similarities between the EUnetHTA and national HTAs on 10 assessments items relevant to the population and subgroup analysis, assigned comparators, outcome selection and analysis, and study design issues. We further identified the impact of the discrepancy or similarity on the outcomes of the country assessments.
