Why you need an expert?
- Reimbursement of medical devices is complex
- Not getting it right is costly in time, money and loss of market opportunities

In my role as Country Manager, Australia, BioQ Pharma Pty Ltd engaged MedTechnique Consulting to help with our first entry into the Australian prosthesis environment, significantly the first reimbursement application for our brand globally. The result was the successful Australian entry and addition to the Australian Prosthesis List.
Throughout these complex reimbursement applications, MedTechnique Consulting proved to be a highly skilled, informed, proactive and approachable partner to our organisation. They added immense value to our organisation by refining complex and at times challenging reimbursement projects into clear and meaningful propositions. Our team appreciated her attention to detail and vigilance in keeping us informed on the environment, changes and risks at all times.
