Services / Health economic modeling & meta analysis

Innovative methods to assess healthcare interventions

Modeling and meta-analysis are powerful tools for providing payers with vital information on which to base their decisions when assessing the costs and/or benefits of healthcare interventions.


Why do we need modeling?

When payers make decisions about which technologies and/or services to fund, they must assess the clinical and economic value of feasible alternatives through a consideration of costs and appropriate outcomes over an appropriate time horizon for a range of patient subgroups.

Clinical trials are designed for measurement and hypothesis testing, so they often fail to meet the requirements for decision-making.

Meta-analysis

  • Systematic literature reviews and network meta-analysis to support economic modeling and HTA submissions
  • Clinical landscape and data comparability assessments
  • Indirect treatment comparisons of non-randomized data
  • Network meta-analysis and indirect treatment comparison of survival data
  • Meta-analysis of epidemiologic and other non-clinical data
  • Matching adjusted indirect comparisons
  • Simulated treatment comparisons
