Why join LiSAH?

Health systems continue to evolve, alongside changes in evidence expectations and assessment methods for medicines, as well as in the roles of national bodies and the nature of cross-border collaborations. Access teams must work within this increasing complexity at both national and international level.

How does the access professional keep up with these developments, and where do they go to check their understanding of a particular requirement? Information is scattered across social media, conference presentations, newsletters, and institutional sources. The challenge is not only to keep up, but also to judge completeness, accuracy, and context.

LiSAH brings together a comprehensive range of structured resources to help you keep up to date and interpret developments in the context of current practice. We also provide practical resources to support your day-to-day work in pharmaceutical access.

What do we provide?

  • We have an international access News service, focused on policy developments and changes to access processes, supported by a regular Newsletter to help you keep up with key developments.
  • Our structured Summaries and Briefings place developments in context by explaining the underlying systems, processes, and requirements across countries and topics.
  • Lisa, our AI-enabled assistant, is designed to provide rapid guidance grounded in LiSAH material and selected validated external sources when you need to check a point quickly.
  • We provide Learning resources including professional societies, courses, webinars, podcasts, journals, and books relevant to pharmaceutical access.
  • We monitor events of interest to access professionals and allow you to identify relevant conferences, workshops, and training sessions through our interactive Events calendar.
  • When you need specialist support, our Directory allows you to identify relevant organisations by filtering for service type and geographic expertise. As with the Events calendar, inclusion in the Directory is free of charge, helping to ensure broad coverage.
  • Lastly, our site Search helps you identify relevant material quickly across LiSAH resources.

Who is LiSAH for?

LiSAH is designed primarily for access professionals working in life sciences product manufacturing, with a focus on the pharmaceutical and allied sectors, including biotechnology and advanced therapies. While we include information on access developments and processes worldwide, our main focus is Europe, where the interplay of national and international requirements, cultures, and languages makes access an ongoing challenge.

LiSAH may also be useful to others with a professional interest in how medicines become available to patients, including:

  • Professionals in related functions who either need to understand access as part of their role or contribute directly to access activity, such as those working in Commercial, General Management, Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR), Research and Development, and Medical Affairs;

  • Those who provide consultancy or other specialist services to access teams;

  • Those who represent patient organisations and want to understand how medicines are assessed and made available within their healthcare system;

  • Employees of health authorities who are expert in their own system but want to compare how another country approaches a particular aspect of access;

  • Academics seeking a practical perspective on the access function to complement their research.

Some aspects of LiSAH such as health policy and health economics may also be relevant to the medical technology sector. However, we do not currently address the specific features of access for this segment. If you work in this area and would like us to develop dedicated materials, please get in touch.
