Pressure for Pharma
The next wave in pharma innovation.
Operating Environment:
- Globalization
- Heightened transparency
expectations
- Increased exposure to innovative
technologies
- Social and Economic Pressures
(wider health ecosystem)
Consequences:
- Escalating costs and pricing pressures
- Increasing competition
- Shorter time in market
- Expiring patents and declining
profitability
- Mounting regulatory scrutiny

Digital is Enabling Patient Centricity
Forces that are changing a provider-driven marketplace to a patient-centric health ecosystem.
- Ageing population (↑chronic disease)
- Unrelenting pressures on capacity and
financial viability
- Policy and payers seeking to control costs
and requiring evidence of value and
effectiveness
- Health technology, genomics, connected
devices, big data analytics and AI
- Blurring of provider boundaries: new entrants,
partnerships and collaboration as part of the
new health ecosystem

↑ Agility and responsiveness
to become patient-centric
Margins in digital health are small
compared to pharma’s margins
Hard to make a commercial case
Requirement for constant upgrades
is at odds with an industry that takes
a decade from “bench to bedside”

advancement is adding complexity to
regulatory landscape.
FDA: Apps are devices only if they
are used in diagnosis, treatment or
prevention of disease
(Digital Health Innovation Plan)
EU MDR: all medical software apps
as medical devices, most standalone

AstraZeneca’s Day-by-Day Coaching Service for patients recovering from a heart attack
After a heart attack, many people don’t change their
lifestyles or refill their medication. In the US, 200,000
people a year go on to have a second heart attack.
75 heart attack patients and caregivers to find out their
real needs. Developed unique content, training a team
of dedicated heart-health coaches, and using the latest
technology.
RESULTS:
64% of patients started a new exercise routine.
17,1% improvement in the clinically recognised Patient
Activation Measure (PAM) score.
