Most consultancies show you a brochure. We publish working tools built on the same data and methods we use for client models: open, free, and live in your browser.

PATHWAY · PROBABILITY LEVEL

Then we put the five together.

Every dataset above feeds one model: 521 novel EMA authorisations from 2011 to 2020, traced molecule by molecule through five HTA agencies and into four countries' dispensing records, segmented by technology, disease area and first-in-class status. The output is the number every launch plan needs and almost none state: the probability of clearing each gate, with honest uncertainty. Pick an agency to see its funnel.

The gap between positive and dispensed is nearly zero: a NICE yes is funded by statute.

Germany clears 30% of everything authorised, France reaches pharmacies with 26%, Australia lists 30%. First-in-class molecules win the assessments they enter and lose the ones they never reach. The full model, every country, every segment, with 90% credible intervals, is in the subscription.

THE PROBLEM

The way health economics
consultancy works is broken.

A partner sells it in. A junior analyst builds it. Timelines slip. Fees grow. The model arrives over-engineered for the decision it was built to support. Biotech and pharma companies deserve better.

WHAT WE BUILD

Our services

Budget Impact Models

Formulary submissions, payer negotiations, and managed entry agreements, adapted for individual payer and market requirements across the UK, Europe, and US.

Learn more →

Cost of Illness Models

Disease burden evidence that frames the unmet need, shapes the market, and gives payers and investors the context they need to act.

Learn more →

Cost-Effectiveness Models

Submission-quality models built to the requirements of NICE, SMC, AWMSG, G-BA, HAS, CADTH, and other major HTA bodies.

Learn more →

Epidemiological Models

Credible patient population sizing across geographies: the foundation every other model is built on, calibrated to local data sources.

Learn more →

Resource Use & Costing

Pathway costing and current care benchmarking calibrated to local healthcare systems and payer expectations across global markets.

Integrated Evidence Packages

Global suites connecting burden, population, and economic evidence into a single market access narrative, built to travel across markets.

WHY ALTIMA PARTNERS

Built differently.
Delivered differently.

01

Senior delivery, every time

Your project is led and built by experienced health economists, not handed off to junior staff supervised from a distance. You get the expertise you're paying for.

02

Global expertise, local credibility

Deep familiarity with HTA requirements and payer expectations across the US, UK, Europe, and beyond. We know what NICE, G-BA, HAS, and CADTH need to see, and how to build models that stand up to scrutiny.

03

Right-sized for the decision

We build the model the decision requires, not the model that justifies the engagement. If a decision tree is the right tool, we'll tell you, even if a Markov model would have cost more.

04

Fixed fees. No surprises.

Every project is priced upfront. Clear scope, agreed timeline, no time-and-materials billing that grows with every revision request.

05

Built to travel

Our global models are architected from the outset for local adaptation, protecting your investment as you move across markets without rebuilding from scratch.
