MTRC is a leading provider of reimbursement, health economic and evidence synthesis services to the medical technologies industry in Europe. 

MTRC was established in 2017 in Stockholm.

What started as a small team of a few reimbursement consultants, has grown into a boutique consultancy offering more than twenty dedicated consultants and analysts in six European countries.  We currently have an HEOR office in the United Kingdom (UK), a market access consultancy office in Spain and a contracting/billing office in Bulgaria.


Specializing in multi-country European projects, we proudly include more than 820 projects in 34 European countries as part of our portfolio.

Our team includes experienced clinical coders, reimbursement and HEOR analysts, and is complemented by affiliated senior reimbursement consultants from different major countries. Our analysts speak English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Turkish, Russian and Polish. We also have on-demand access to native speakers who are specialists in healthcare systems in other key regions of Europe (Scandinavia, the Netherlands, and Eastern European countries).

Since the very beginning, MTRC’s specialty was the medical technologies sector. While most other life science consultants spend 90% of their time on pharmaceutical projects, we do not perform any pharmaceutical projects, but dedicate 100% of our time to the area of medical technologies, so that our specialization results in higher-quality services at a lower cost.

Part of our mission and core values is our cost-effective approach to providing services. We understand the budgetary challenges of the med tech industry and can therefore offer a cost-effective approach to our specialised services. Thirteen percent (13%) of our current business comes from small to medium enterprises (SMEs) – a testament to our unique and personal approach to solving our clients’ budgetary challenges. Our prices are regarded as reasonable and generally affordable for the medical device industry (both corporations and SMEs).

One of our main focuses is on producing accurate analysis and reporting, strictly according to the timelines and expectations of our client. We are accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) as an ISO 9001:2015 certified vendor.
