Demonstrating the downstream value of diagnostics
Diagnostic technologies are advancing rapidly, with AI-driven platforms, multi-omics, and data-rich approaches redefining how disease is detected and managed. The value of a diagnostic is also often indirect; it is realised through its impact on downstream clinical outcomes and resource utilisation. As such, the evidence generated for diagnostics may use intermediate endpoints, test accuracy metrics, or predictive models. This may not translate cleanly into conventional HTA frameworks.
At YHEC, we specialise in generating and synthesising the evidence needed to navigate this environment. Our extensive methodological work in this area enables our team to provide the strategic guidance and technical rigour required to help you articulate the value of your diagnostic. We help you to ask the right questions early, critically explore the evidence landscape, and prepare for scrutiny from a wide array of stakeholders. Our dedicated training courses in health economics and evidence generation also help clients build their internal expertise.
