MEAs used by European payers to manage aspects of uncertainty
Enabling Access to
Life-Saving Therapies
Offering consultancy services for healthcare organisations to ensure timely access and reimbursement for
life-saving therapies.
At Valence Consultancy, I understand the urgency and importance of timely access to effective treatments. Many of us have experienced the pain of losing a loved one to illness. This deeply personal experience fuels my mission to ensure that no patient has to wait unnecessarily for life-saving treatment.
As former payer, I also understand the boundaries of solidarity and the increasing pressure that the health care budget forms on national expenditures. Finding balanced solutions that benefit patients, innovation, and society en large is key.
