The Need for Specialist Consultants
New challenges face pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies -
- The abolition of PCTs and takeover by CCGs (Clinical Commissioning Groups)
- New stakeholders and gatekeepers
- Greater challenges to market entry and adoption - NICE, HTAs etc
- The introduction of value-based pricing - see our report
- NHS structural and strategic changes - NHS Commissioning Board
- Changes in Government, legislation and policy
- New technologies – new chemical entities and innovations in delivery.
Specialist expertise is often required to complement that of your in-house team. We can work with your team or independently.
Additional resources and/or an external perspective are often required at product launches, NICE appraisals or when facing new challenges.
