From EU HTA to national market access across Europe
The EU HTA Regulation creates a common framework for clinical assessment, while reimbursement, pricing and market access requirements remain national. Delta Dossier explores how European assessment connects with national market access, with a particular focus on Germany and France.
JCA creates a common clinical assessment, but does not replace national HTA
JCA provides a shared European assessment of comparative clinical effectiveness and safety. National HTA, reimbursement and pricing decisions remain within the respective national systems.

National evidence requirements already shape JCA scoping
Populations, comparators and outcomes from Member States influence the JCA assessment scope and can result in multiple PICO questions.
warning
JCA evidence does not automatically meet national HTA requirements
Evidence considered in the JCA may be assessed differently at national level depending on comparator, endpoints, methodology and decision context.
public
The JCA-to-national HTA gap is country-specific
JCA content may be reused, adapted, updated or supplemented depending on the requirements of each national HTA system.
timeline
JCA and national HTA require an integrated evidence strategy
Comparator, population and endpoint requirements should be anticipated early because some evidence gaps cannot be resolved after pivotal development.

Cytel combines European evidence strategy and JCA expertise with established local market access capabilities in Germany and France.
European clinical assessment creates a common starting point, while national HTA, reimbursement and pricing requirements remain country-specific. Cytel, co.value – A Cytel Brand and stève consultants connect these levels across the evidence and market access pathway.
Cytel | European evidence and JCA
Cytel supports evidence generation, PICO strategy, statistical methodology and JCA preparation across the European assessment process. The focus is on building evidence that addresses the European assessment scope while anticipating requirements that may become relevant in national HTA.
co.value | Germany
co.value – A Cytel Brand provides local expertise across the German AMNOG pathway, from early evidence and comparator strategy to benefit assessment and national dossier requirements. This includes translating JCA evidence into the specific requirements of the German benefit assessment.
stève consultants | France
stève consultants brings established French Market Access, HEOR and RWE expertise to the national pathway. The team has worked on more than 750 dossiers submitted to the Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) and supports reimbursement strategy, local HTA submissions, early access and evidence generation for the French market.
Local capabilities
Local capabilities across national HTA pathways
European evidence needs to connect with different national assessment, reimbursement and pricing requirements. Local capabilities therefore extend beyond the clinical assessment itself.
account_balance
Market access & HTA
Local pricing and reimbursement strategy, HTA gap analysis, early access, reimbursement dossiers and support throughout national assessment procedures.
monitoring
HEOR
Cost-effectiveness dossiers, health economic modelling and adaptation of international economic models to national requirements.

Real-world evidence
Evidence generation using national data sources to address epidemiology, target populations, treatment pathways, effectiveness, safety and healthcare resource use.
Together, these capabilities allow European evidence planning and national HTA preparation to be considered as one connected evidence strategy rather than sequential European and local projects.

EU HTA creates a shared European framework for clinical assessment, but successful market access still requires country-specific preparation.
Cytel, co.value and stève consultants support manufacturers in identifying where European evidence can be used directly, where national requirements diverge and where additional evidence, analyses or local adaptation may be required.
