JCA Readiness & PICO Strategy

Preparing for Joint Clinical Assessment starts long before submission.

 

Understanding likely evidence requirements early can help organisations reduce risk, align evidence planning and support successful value demonstration.

How do you prepare for JCA requirements that have limited precedent?

The European Joint Clinical Assessment is changing how evidence will be assessed across Europe, creating new considerations for evidence planning, synthesis requirements and value demonstration.

‍

Organisations must make important decisions before formal scoping begins, often without knowing exactly which PICOs will be requested or how requirements may vary across member states.

‍

Early insight into likely requirements can help teams prioritise evidence generation, address potential gaps and prepare more effectively for future assessments.

How we help

Powered by PICOSCAN®

PICOScan® helps organisations anticipate likely JCA evidence requirements before formal scoping begins.

 

By combining insights from clinical guidelines, HTA analogues, key opinion leaders and HTA stakeholders across Europe, PICOScan® provides early visibility of the evidence requirements that may influence future value demonstration, patient access and JSC planning.

Key questions

Navigating uncertainty before JCA scoping begins

How early should organisations start preparing for the JCA?

Understanding likely PICOs as early as possible helps to drive effective evidence generation and synthesis strategies.

What if I cannot address all the PICOS straight away?

Prioritisation and evidence planning become critical as the value demonstration strategy for an asset matures.

Where are the evidence risks?

Identify potential evidence gaps, uncertainties and future requirements before they become access challenges.

How can evidence risks be mitigated?

Inform evidence generation, synthesis and planning activities while there is still an opportunity to act.

What should be prioritised now?

Focus time and investment on the evidence activities most likely to support future JCA and market access objectives.

Enabling JCA strategy

We apply our guiding framework, Explore • Build • Optimise, to help organisations anticipate likely PICO requirements, identify evidence risks and make better-informed JCA planning decisions.

Explore

Understand likely PICO expectations across European member states through targeted landscape review and early stakeholder insight

Build

Define evidence generation and synthesis requirements for predicted populations, comparators and outcomes

Optimise

Consolidate cross-market requirements to support value demonstration and alignment on European value and access strategy
