MTRC is developing a novel digital product - Reimbursement and HTA Market Intelligence Database, which will allow access to the historical reimbursement/HTA decisions for individual technology groups (e.g. cardiovascular, robotic, IVD etc.), for individual countries, filtering decisions by type of decision (e.g. procedure coding, payment mechanisms, innovation funding etc.). There will be a small overlap between the upcoming database product and the existing Reimbursement and HTA Alerts newsletter; however, the database will offer much broader functionality and several additional benefits. We invite our existing and prospective clients to comment on the design of the upcoming solution. Read more

Australia is a complex country from a market access perspective. The main aspects of the healthcare system are centralized, with minor differences among states and territories. Hospitals are financed by both the states/territories and the Australian Government, and they receive budgets adjusted for DRG and outpatient activities. Physician activities are reimbursed separately according to the Medicare Benefits Schedule. HTA framework is incorporated in the process of inclusion of new services in the Medicare Benefits Schedule. Read more

Canada is a complex country from a market access perspective. The healthcare system is decentralized, with provinces taking the leading role in the organization and financing of services. While most of the provinces use a simple global budget model (based on historical costs) to finance hospital activities, in largest provinces (Ontario and Quebec), casemix data reported via the DRG system also influences the budget determination. Physician activities are reimbursed separately according to provincial fee schedules. The market access landscape is complicated by the presence of national and provincial HTA frameworks and provincial funding frameworks. Read more

MedTech Europe and MTRC completed a mapping of reimbursement and funding of medical procedures and technologies. MTRC analysed all these pathways by screening the situation in 32 European countries between July and October 2022. The result is an overview of all the current payment schemes for innovative medical technologies and procedures. The mapping also presents the current concrete initiatives aimed at transforming healthcare systems and/or reimbursement and funding systems already implemented by some European countries. Read more
