Design with Value, Deliver with Confidence
Pricing is a critical driver of market access success. But with cost containment pressures rising, achieving the right balance between commercial objectives and payer acceptability is more complex than ever. At Kintiga, we develop pricing strategies that are both ambitious and grounded in data, informed by local HTA body and payer expectations, and aligned with your overall market access goals.
Our capabilities include:
- International reference pricing (IRP) scenario planning
- Willingness-to-pay assessments and analogue analysis
- Price-volume trade-off modelling
- Strategic launch sequence optimisation
- Risk-sharing and managed entry agreement support

Driving change, delivering results.
Our work speaks for itself. From influencing policy shifts to improving access, explore the measurable results and real-world impact we’ve delivered for our clients and their patients.
Our approach
Holistic, systemic analysis:
We take the external perspective and combine it our client’s internal view through interviews or advisory boards with payers, physicians, and patients, as well as through a comprehensive analysis that evaluates all precedents and possible treatment options. We compare this perspective with your organisation’s perspective and harmonise as a basis for the final determination of the launch price and defining floor price, i.e., the economically viable minimum reimbursement amount.
Contingencies become decisions
Kintiga systematically decodes the various dependencies in the European reference price system and presents them transparently in realistic scenarios. This gives those responsible for pricing complete decision-making confidence .
Across national borders and obstacles
Our experience shows that communicating the specific complexity with a country or regions presents a particular challenge. Kintiga supports coordination with European and international organisations and can conduct primary market research for pricing if needed.
