AXIS made what seemed like an overwhelming process much more manageable

Launching in Ireland for the first time, we were faced with numerous challenges in understanding the market access process and navigating the complexities of reimbursement. AXIS were recommended to us, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Brenda’s extensive knowledge of the Irish healthcare system was invaluable, and Emma’s exceptional organisation and communication skills ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Thanks to their combined expertise and support, we submitted a comprehensive application and we look forward to working with them again soon on future launches.

AXIS made what seemed like an overwhelming process much more manageable, I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to enter the Irish market with confidence!

Exceptional project management

AXIS has been an excellent market access partner that guided the Teva team to navigate the complex pathway to reimbursement of their new medicine for migraines. From the development of a robust Rapid Review to the preparation of a full HTA, through strategic pricing discussions with the HSE and the follow-up interactions with the MMP, AXIS were always highly responsive, dependable, detail orientated and dedicated to our success. Their exceptional project management ensured that commitments made were
always delivered on time and to the highest quality”.

The experience was highly collaborative, working with us as part of a cross functional team and not in a client-vendor relationship.

I cannot recommend AXIS highly enough. We faced a very challenging reimbursement application process in Ireland, which is a market where the organisation had no prior experience or expertise. AXIS expertly navigated us through a complex procedure with the NCPE and HSE, providing both content and contextual expertise. They ensured that both our clinical and health economic cases were optimised to the local market environment, represented us with local stakeholders, and helped us navigate a difficult price negotiation. The experience was highly collaborative, working with us as part of a cross functional team and not in a client-vendor relationship. The final result was a highly successful reimbursement outcome for an orphan medication that exceeded objectives both in terms of scope and commercial conditions. If you need a local partner in Ireland look no further.
