[Research Report] The MEWA health economics & outcomes research (HEOR) market size is expected to reach US$ 57.90 million by 2030 from US$ 34.47 million in 2022. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2022 to 2030.

Market Insights and Analyst View:

Health economics focuses on measuring and evaluating the outcomes of health interventions. Outcomes research encompasses a range of scientific disciplines that help in evaluating the impact of health interventions on patients. Therefore, health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) combines two fields to provide meaningful data and insights for healthcare decision-makers. Interest in HEOR has grown exponentially as governments and other payers grapple with how to achieve the best possible health outcomes at an affordable cost. HEOR can help healthcare decision-makers, including physicians, governments, payers, ministries of health, patients, and more, appropriately compare and select available options. The growing biotechnology & pharmaceutical companies and drug developments and increasing healthcare spending are driving the MEWA HEOR market. However, the restrictions on access to real-world data (RWD) hinder the market growth.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

Drug development activities are being conducted constantly in the MEWA to provide quality drugs and improve lives owing to the rising chronic diseases and aging population. To drive business, there is a need for understanding the health economics and their outcomes. Thus, it becomes difficult for market players to design a product and its lifecycle throughout the developmental process. Various companies outsource health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) services to understand the regulations, healthcare coverage, and access decisions and identify the intervention that would benefit the specific population of patients. Thus, various well-established companies outsource HEOR services to save on production cost. The HEOR service providers help pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies explain the value of their innovations to their respective stakeholders, such as physicians, payers, and patients. Given the potential for economic growth and improved health outcomes, the biotechnology sector in the Middle East is attracting increasing attention and investment. Such partnerships are expected to boost the HEOR services in the Middle East. Chinese pharmaceutical companies are also entering Africa by making multibillion-dollar investments in local drug manufacturing facilities, lured by the unmet health needs of the world's fastest-growing and most developing continent. The investments by the pharmaceutical companies in the region are adding up to the market growth.

Healthcare spending in the Middle East has increased rapidly, leading to a growing demand for new and innovative healthcare solutions. According to a Dubai Chamber of Commerce report, Saudi Arabia and the UAE hold the largest market share in the biotechnology market in the Middle East and is expected to reach US$ 2.6 million by 2028. In the 2023 federal budget, the UAE allocated US$ 1.3 billion for community health care and protection. Further, different demographic characteristics and health outcomes, among others, characterize West Africa. Health systems in sub-Saharan Africa, including West Africa, have long suffered from a dual burden of communicable and noncommunicable diseases. Governments support technological developments in the health sector to improve living standards in West Africa. As a result, policies are implemented to provide quality healthcare by investing in advanced technologies such as sophisticated equipment, diagnostic items, and high-quality medicines for treatments. Investments in the health sector are encouraged as they lead to increased human capital development and well-being of the population, which in turn leads to economic growth in the region. Thus, the growing healthcare expenditure in the MEWA is positively influencing the HEOR service market growth.

The HEOR service is primarily based on analyzing RWD, and the real-world evidence (RWE) is derived. In the healthcare industry, countless research and developments are being conducted, owing to which a huge database is generated during and after the clinical research. Companies cannot store and manage data; hence, they outsource the data maintenance. Due to security and personal reasons, it becomes difficult for HEOR service providers to collect data from third-party companies and generate an RWE. In addition, access to RWD is highly regulated. The owners do not allow access to their data, so generating evidence for any new product launch and development becomes challenging. Sharing the data with payers is also restricted, which further restricts HEOR service providers from gathering vital information on the developing areas of the healthcare industry. Thus, restricted access to RWD restrains the MEWA HEOR service market growth.

The clinical outcome segment held the largest market share in 2022. The real-world data analysis and information systems segment is predicted to register the highest CAGR of 7.5% during 2022–2030. Clinical outcome studies are important to understand the effect of treatment on the patient. It also studies the mortality and morbidity rate, treatment efficacy, and functioning of particular drug candidates. A clinical outcome assessment provides a quantitative rating to indicate some aspects of the patient's health status. Moreover, the outcome assessments are used to overview clinical studies comprehensively. In July 2020, Certara launched the COVID-19 clinical outcomes database worldwide to offer real-time information about COVID-19 studies. Further, the database will help determine the feasibility of potential vaccines and therapeutics for viral infection from more than 500 registered studies worldwide. Further, real-world data analysis is significantly used to fast-track drug development for rare diseases. In addition, the benefits of real-world data analysis attract pharmaceutical companies to implement the methodologies during their clinical studies. In May 2023, Komodo Health announced that its real-world evidence (RWE) technology platform is used to help 17 new health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) studies, which were presented at the global conference 2023 at International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR). Increasing awareness of information systems and real-world data analysis generates significant market potential. In addition, the companies are implementing various strategies to prove their existence in the global markets.
