Title: Can consolidation in the medical technology industry improve healthcare


1
Can consolidation in the medical technology
industry improve healthcare?
  • Dr. Laurent LeksellPresident CEOElekta AB

2
Elekta global leader in radiation oncology and
neurosurgery
  • Global medical technology Group with HQ in
    Stockholm, Sweden
  • Clinically effective and cost-efficient solutions
    and services for
  • improved management of cancer
  • minimally and non-invasive treatment of brain
    disorders
  • Net sales of USD 600 M and 1,700 employees
  • Listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange with a
    market cap of USD 1.200 M
  • History of numerous acquisitions recently IMPAC
    Medical Systems Inc.

3
Key questions
  • Will consolidation in the medtech industry
    continue?
  • Which factors drive consolidation? Which factors
    drive fragmentation?
  • Is medtech industry consolidation beneficial for
    providers and patients?
  • Case study Elektas experience in cancer
    management

Medtech industry overview
  • The medtech industry has combined sales exceeding
    200 billion per year
  • Global growth rate of 10
  • Medical equipment expenditure is a small share,
    only 3-6, of health care costs
  • For example, radiation therapy is an capital
    intensive practice, still equipment is only 10
    of total cost for radiation therapy

5
Global medtech industry trends
  • Strong fundamentals
  • Favorable demographics, life style changes and
    predictable demand
  • Compelling clinical utility
  • Readily demonstrable savings
  • Focus on new cutting-edge technologies and new
    markets
  • Strong new product pipelines despite RD
    spending at only 10
  • Focus on integrated solutions
  • Vertical and horizontal integration
  • Information technology advances
  • Intelligent device management and Electronic
    Medical Records (EMR)
  • Continued consolidation

6
The European medtech industry remains fragmented
  • The industry is consolidating
  • Despite recent MA activity, the European market
    remains fragmented - the ten largest companies
    together control 33 of the market
  • Leverage on resources and economy of scale
  • Transition from equipment deliveries to total
    solution providers

7
Consolidation vs. Fragmentation
Factors Spurring
  • Fragmentation
  • Diversity of medtech market
  • Small companies at the forefront of innovation
  • Synergies in product development are scarce
  • Distribution is highly specialized
  • Technological changes
  • Specialization and changes in clinical practice
  • Consolidation
  • Globalization of markets
  • Increasing demand for one partner solutions
  • Increasing RD cost and risk
  • Product bundling opportunities
  • Regulatory matters and reimbursement coverage
  • Often rewarded by thestock market

8
Rationale for medtech consolidation
  • 1. Bolt-on acquisitions
  • Improvement in distribution and technology
  • Often represent the most attractive corporate
    development for medical device companies
  • Elekta/IMPAC, Roche/Disetronic, Synthes/Spine
    Solutions, Straumann/Biora
  • 2. Consolidation within industry niche
  • Cost reduction and larger scale
  • Risk of revenue losses from sales force
    integration
  • Improved ability to fund RD
  • JJ/Guidant, Synthes/Mathys, Zimmer/Centerpulse,
    Sorin/Carbomedics

9
Rationale for medtech consolidationcont.
  • 3. Business expansion
  • Increasing growth opportunities / risk reduction
  • Rare amongst pure play European companies
  • Limited direct impact on distribution or product
    portfolio enhancement
  • GE/Amersham, Getinge/Siemens LSS, Elekta/Philips
    Radiotherapy
  • 4. Vertical integration
  • Expanding from products to services
  • Particularly relevant for dialysis and hearing
    aid market in Europe
  • William Demant/Avada, Fresenius

10
Medtech consolidation some pros and cons for
providers and patients
  • Cons
  • Less customer choice
  • Vendor dependency and loss of bargainingpower
  • Slower technology change and innovation
  • Higher price due to monopolistic markets
  • Lack of customer focus and corporate flexibility
  • Pros
  • Lower costs transferred to customers
  • Expansion of RD investments
  • Improvements in customer service
  • Corporate sustainability- long-term partnership
  • Simplified purchase and logistics

11
Case study Elektas role in cancer management
  • Cancer is the second most common cause of death
    after cardio-vascular disease
  • Higher age and better diagnostics leads to an
    increased number of cancer cases
  • gt 10 million cases worldwide diagnosed every
    year - estimated to increase to gt15 million by
    2020
  • 24 of all patients with malignant cancer
    develop brain metastases

Institute
12
Elektas strategy in cancer management Focus on
radiation therapy
  • Approx. 50 of patients diagnosed with cancer
    needs radiation therapy
  • Increased rate of tumor control through new,
    advanced methods
  • Highly cost-effective compared with surgery and
    chemotherapy
  • Less traumatic for the patient compared to
    alternatives
  • Small share of costs high share of treatments
  • Only 5-10 of total cancer care costs

13
How to improve cancer care in a fragmented care
environment?
  • Organizationally scattered too many
    independent cancer care providers
  • Highly complex care process with large number of
    inter-dependencies
  • Need for increased use of IT for improved
    work-flow and productivity
  • Higher clinical effectiveness needed through
    integration
  • How to accomplish?

14
Elektas response to the need of improved cancer
care
  • Development of new technology
  • Acquisition of Philips Radiotherapy in 1997 to
    provide an industrial platform
  • High level of RD investments (e. g.
    introduction of IGRT)
  • Integration with diagnostics
  • Acquisition of Neuromag in 2003 to introduce
    functional brain imaging for Leksell Gamma Knife
  • Development of common industry standards and
    interfaces
  • Development of the clinical process and IT
    support
  • Acquisition of IMPAC Medical Systems Inc. in 2005
  • Open connectivity and workflow improvements

15
Elektas response to the need of improved cancer
care, cont.
  • Customer collaborations and joint improvements
  • Funding of clinical research, e.g. epilepsy and
    pain management
  • Development of Elekta Synergy and new technology
    for stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT)
  • Sharing of know-how and best practice
  • Extensive user training and service
  • Leksell Gamma Knife Society
  • Elekta Synergy Consortium
  • IMRT Consortium
  • Support cancer management expansion in developing
    countries

16

Patient Treatment
  • Increased use of IT
  • Today, US hospitals typically dedicate about 2
    of their annual budgets to IT, far less than
    many other industries

24
A new strategy for therapy management based on
  • Shift in customer purchase behavior
  • Purchase decisions based on treatment
    efficiency, not technology
  • Customer focus on core activities
  • Demand for solutions with lower costs,
    flexibility and high up-time
  • Increasing complexity in therapy
  • Therapy becoming complex and specialized
  • More difficult for health care institutions to
    allocate sufficient internal competence
  • Partnering as a business management model
  • Partnering and strategic outsourcing becoming a
    basic management principle
  • Full responsibility for a substantial part of the
    value chain
  • A mind set to see companies as a partner rather
    than just a supplier of hard ware and software
    products

25
The healthcare challenge supply vs. cost vs.
quality of care!
  • Increased demand and rising costs spurred by
  • Demographics
  • Education and diagnosis
  • New treatment alternatives
  • Demand tends to outgrow supply
  • Health care expenditure as percentage of GDP
    grows when standard of living increases

26
Healthcare cost is increasing its share of GDP
