Health Economics and HTA and its role in pricing and reimbursement, pipeline and in-lisencing evaluations as well as portfolio and company valuations in the biotech and pharmaceutical sector is ever increasing. While I was searching the web for various news on the topic, I actually couldn't find a blog that offers a platform of exchange among professionals in this field around the various topics - so there we go now and I hope you enjoy the information...

IQWIG method paper in development
The German pharma industry association has recently circulated a briefing document around the new method paper/process of IQWIG assessment in Germany. As it looks like only after a relative effectiveness assessment has been proven better utility for the new drug - as before based on RCT's only! - a cost-benefit assessment will be conducted... (still max prices apparently will apply) modeling and QALY's should apparently not be part of the equation... the industry association protests against missing international standards.. Germany's HTA remains mysterious so far.
