HECOPERMED

HEcoPerMed stands for "Healthcare- and pharma-economics in support of the International Consortium for Personalised Medicine - ICPerMed". The project responds to the demand for economic models that evaluate treatments made possible through innovations in personalised medicine. HEcoPerMed also seeks to identify funding and reimbursement mechanisms that provide financial incentives for the rapid development and uptake of such innovations. HEcoPerMed goes beyond current assessment and payment models in order to serve the need of personalised medicine for more comprehensive cost-effectiveness estimates - incorporating patient and societal perspectives - and for sustainable affordability of cutting-edge health innovations... Our project aims to identify the best modelling and payment strategies for personalised medicine to differentiate between promises and reality.
