How Does MTRC Perform the Analysis and Ensure High Quality of Work?

In order to deliver analysis in multiple and very diverse EU markets, we employ a number of approaches:

We secure access to necessary coding/grouping software and documentation.

In many countries, the software for DRG analysis is only available at a significant cost or available only to hospital providers. We make sure that necessary tools are at our disposal for analysis

We developed know-how of reimbursement analysis in EU markets over many years of consulting practice.

While there are certain general patterns of analysis, which are the same for any system, each country is unique, and a true understanding of the market comes only with the experience

We became a highly standardized organization to ensure the high quality of our work.

We maintain Work Instructions in every country to train new analysts, checklists for daily work, necessary processes, and meetings to learn from mistakes and share knowledge within the organization. We are an ISO 9001:2015 certified organization (with the United Kingdom Accreditation Service, UKAS), which confirms the existence of well-structured processes of quality management

We stay up to date about developments in key markets through our unique paid subscription services Reimbursement and HTA Alerts

We are usually the first to learn about new developments, including procedure coding, payment mechanisms, policies, HTA landscape in general and in relation to individual technologies. We monitor more than 50 organizations every two weeks and more than 200 organizations annually to have a good understanding of all changes in the payment systems

All reports are reviewed by the Director

Being a small, boutique consultancy, we can ensure that our senior leadership expertise is available to every client
