Global Market Access for Medical Device Software In-house Training

Course overview

This course will provide a clear understanding of different market access requirements for medical device software.

As demand surges for Digital Health (DH) solutions worldwide, understanding and navigating international regulations is paramount for market access success. This course will equip professionals with the knowledge to successfully enter into different international markets, improving the chances of commercial success by understanding country-specific requirements.

With an increased impact on clinical management, a higher bar for evidence is required for regulatory approval and adoption, but also an increased stakeholder willingness to pay for the service provided. Although at the moment, there’s no one-size-fits all approach, there is a global trend to increase DHT adoption through value-based pricing and reimbursement mechanisms. This growing trend has prompted countries, both within and outside the European Union (EU), to pilot various market authorization and access schemes, providing guidelines for coverage, and/or clear pathways for reimbursement of DHTs. This intensive course provides a comprehensive overview of the different national DHT market access and reimbursement strategies, presenting an overview of the current state of affairs. 

The program will be highly interactive, using real-life examples and state-of-the-art practices across different global jurisdictions. Practical insights will be provide, hands-on exercises, and case studies to guide you through the intricate decisions needed that affect your market access processes.
