About OHE
OHE MISSION STATEMENT
Support better health care policies by providing insightful economic and statistical analyses of critical issues.
HOW WE ARE ORGANISED
OHE is a charity with registered charity number 1170829. A senior management team manages OHE. Its governance is the responsibility of its Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees has three subcommittees with advisory roles: a Research Committee, which provides advice and guidance to OHE on its research programme; a Policy Committee, which advises OHE on engaging with policymaking and meeting its Charitable Objects; and a Management Committee, which assists OHE with its operational and business planning.
The Office of Health Economics wholly owns OHE Consulting Limited, which carries out consulting work for third parties and which profit funds The Office of Health Economics research and charity activities.
OHE was awarded Independent Research Organisation status in February 2020. This award is granted by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) which – through the seven Research Councils, Innovate UK and Research England – allocates more than £7 billion in research funding, primarily from the Science Budget of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). IRO status recognised OHE's high quality of independent research and placed OHE on equal footing with the UK's Higher Education Institutions, making us eligible to apply for UKRI funding on the same terms to better fulfil our charitable aims.
WHO WE ARE, HOW AND WHERE WE WORK
By the end of 2021, the OHE team comprised one CEO; one Vice-President Head of Consulting; one Vice-President Head of Research; one Emeritus Director & Senior Research Fellow; one Director; one Associate Director; three Senior Principal Economists; four Principal Economists; fie Senior Economists; one Business Executive; three Economists; and three Administrative Support staff, and three MSc student fellows. Also, in 2021 OHE had nine Honorary Research Fellows. We emphasise projects that tackle impactful policy and strategic issues with current and future significance. Our work involves stakeholders, clients, and external experts to obtain crucial new policy insights and identify strategies and optimal choices.
Although OHE is based in London, we undertake projects both in the UK and internationally. We work collaboratively with a wide network of academics and other partners worldwide.

3 Introduction
This is the fifth report to the Charity Commission for England and Wales since becoming a registered charity in December 2016.
This year's Charity Report for 2021 includes the current document highlighting our work and the required financial information. The complementary Research Summary of 2021 for the Charity Report , based on the report submitted to the Research Committee in February of 2021, provides OHE's research activity for 2021 in detail.
The Charity Report for 2021 shows that OHE is committed to its charitable objectives of advancing the education of the public in general/health care payers/policymakers on the subject of health economics and healthcare policy. Further, OHE uses health economics methods to produce evidencebased health policy and management, contributing to a more efficient and effective health care system .
Beyond OHE's charitable objects at OHE, we also support:
-
The advancement of evidence-based health care policy by engaging in research on the economics of health, health care systems and the life sciences industry
-
Research for the effective and efficient use of health care resources by advancing the use of economic approaches to support decision making; and
-
Decision-making and awareness of health care policy issues by promoting debate and disseminating relevant health economics research.[1]
4 Activities Undertaken in 2021 in fulfilment of our charitable objects
This report aims to provide an account of OHE's performance in its Charitable Purpose and its Impact as defined below:
-
I. OHE Charitable Purpose – Deliver on OHE Charitable Objects and maintain OHE social purpose, where the charitable objects are:
-
a. To advance the education of the public in general/healthcare payers/policymakers (particularly patients and healthcare professionals) about health economics and healthcare policy.
-
b. Activities in furtherance of this will include, but not exclusively:
-
Promotion of evidence-based health care policy by carrying out research on the economics of health, health care systems and the life sciences industry
-
promotion of effective and efficient use of health care resources by advancing the use of economic approaches to support decision making; and
-
1 The term health economics shall mean the application of economic theory, models and empirical techniques to the analysis of decision making by people, health care providers and governments with respect to health and health care.
3
-
facilitating decision-making and awareness of health care policy issues by encouraging debate and disseminating relevant health economics research.
-
II. Impact – Have a measurable impact on health care policy and decision-making
As these two objectives overlap, i.e., the impact is embedded in the Charitable Objects, we report our activity as follows:
-
Research Activity that promotes evidence-based healthcare policy and the effective and efficient use of healthcare resources
-
Dissemination and Education Activities that advance the education of the public/general health care payers/policymakers about health economics and healthcare policy
-
Events that encourage debate facilitate decision-making and increase awareness of health care policy issues
-
Impact summarised as a list indicative of the resonance of OHE's research or activities in decision-making in healthcare
The snapshot of activity and output above illustrates visually the breadth of OHE's research activity, dissemination and education activities, and events that encourage exchanging ideas and increasing awareness of health care policy issues, as of November 2021.
To avoid duplication, in the following account of our objectives, we refer to the summary of research outputs and activities , which is an updated version of the one submitted to the Research Committee and the Board of Trustees in November 2021.
4.1. Research activity
As summarised in the research report attached, OHE's staff had published 25 articles in external peer-review journals, engaged in presentations on 62 occasions, and written 34 blogs up to the end of November 2021.
Many publications are in journals with a high reputation and/or high impact. Moreover, the number of downloads of the OHE's publications/reports was 12.9k by the end of November, indicating a sound diffusion.
OHE's research activity does not only include publications, but also research supported by our CORE grant. These CORE research-funded projects serve two purposes. One is to fund the staff's own research in the form of pilots and studies that can give way to funded research. Another is to support the publication of reports and research in peer-reviewed journals in the absence of funding for this activity. CORE-funded research showcases OHE's breadth and depth capabilities, attracting further funding (and consultancy work). As reported in the attached Research Summary, during 2021, there were 13 active CORE-funded research projects, including Economics of Innovation and Decision, Value and Affordability, the most active themes, with 5 and 4 projects, respectively.
-
Other research and dissemination outputs : In terms of outputs, OHE staff produced 27 external publications (17 peer-reviewed), 9 brown bag seminars, 1 Annual Lecture, 6 Webinars 4 masterclasses and 70 external presentations, 3 brown-bag presentations and 39 blogs.
-
Research awards from prestigious funders and funded research projects :
4
OHE holds £1.51m of live research grants of which 42% (£628,234) of the live research grants came from prestigious funders.By 31.12.21 OHE held £1.59m of live research grants of which 39% were from prestigious funders.
Research projects are more likely to be multi-year engagements than consulting projects, and due to the phasing of these grants OHE has recognised (i.e. completed) £252k of research in 2021. This represents 20% of the total value of the live research grants and 42% of our budgeted amount (£600k) for the year.
In 2021, OHE won £551k of new research grants of which 14% is from prestigious funders.
For an overview of our research income for 2021 please refer to our research summary for 2021.
4.2 Dissemination and Education Activities
In 2021, OHE continued its dissemination and education activities, albeit virtually. As described in the research summary attached, OHE:
-
Held a (virtual) Annual Lecture in which Professor Margaret Kyle presented "Do patents work? Evidence from pharmaceutical innovation". Professor Kyle described the empirical evidence on the effectiveness of patents in the pharmaceutical sector. About 278 registered for the virtual conference and got the slides; the actual attendance was 183.
-
Organised seven brown-bag seminars including one in which a staff member discussed particular projects and another where they invited an external expert to present their work to stimulate collaboration.
-
Staff presented at conferences, gave invited speeches, and/or participated in workshops despite the adverse environment due to COVID-19. The number of presentations by early December was 62.
4.3 Events
One of OHE's missions is to organise events and present our research in different fora. Events encourage debate and facilitate decision-making, meeting another of our charity objects.
As listed in the summary attached, OHE organised:
-
Two virtual Masterclasses by the end of October, to which we should add two more offered in November and December. The subjects revolved around the value of therapies to incorporate patients' preferences into decision-making.
-
Two webinars involving a combination of OHE staff and invited speakers, to which we added two more happening in early December. The attendance at the webinars has been excellent (ranging from 120 to over 200 participants), especially considering the many competing research virtual events.
5
4.4 Summary of impact
In 2021, OHE's research and related activities continued to have a remarkable impact. Below, we list a sample of those we have an explicit record of:
-
The work on antimicrobial resistance was cited in the article Estimating The Appropriate Size Of Global Pull Incentives For Antibacterial Medicines by Kevin Outterson published in Health Affairsin 2021.
-
OHE's work on combination therapies was cited in an article on NICE decisions for combinations https://pharmaphorum.com/views-and-analysis/a-problem-combination/
-
Results from an OHE project on the health system capacity value of vaccination and the return on investment on vaccines from a governmental perspective were presented to DHSC.
-
Simon Brassel contributed three educational pieces on cost-effectiveness evaluation, costutility analyses and the QALY concept to MedTec Online (MTO). https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mto-medtec-online-gmbh_internationalemaeurktemedteconline-medizintechnik-activity-6848511339804131329-yC8Y/
-
Case studies written by OHE on drivers and barriers to innovation in rare and paediatric diseases were released by EFPIA. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/efpia_case-studiesactivity-6826426893034762240-4lMg/
In addition, research and consulting work undertaken by OHE in 2021 had an impact on several key health care policy issues in 2022:
-
Transparency & the European Commission Flagship Initiative : work undertaken for EFPIA on the European Commission's Pharmaceutical Strategy for Europe was expected to be used as the basis for EFPIA's engagement in political discussions and shaping policymaking.
-
COVID vaccines & IP waivers : Key publication commissioned by European Parliamentary group Renew Europe on how to procure, pay and distribute vaccines and use of our blog and social media channels to share policy analysis and commentary.
-
Drug pricing reform in the US : Dissemination of research on design criteria for "fair access" to drugs in the US (ICER); OHE Blog series on the 'Lower Drug Cots Now Act' (HR3) sponsored by PhRMA. The work on the US HR 3 bill on pharmaceutical drugs' pricing was expected to be used and/or discussed in the US when valuing the pros and cons of such policy.
-
NICE Methods Review : OHE continued to be involved in providing evidence-based arguments to the industry to support positions on key parts of the review, which have been taken into consideration by NICE (ABPI).
-
Thresholds : Two journal articles were submitted or in the press on ' Estimating health system opportunity costs: the role of non-linearities and inclusion of multiple outcomes' and 'Supply-side cost-effectiveness thresholds: questions for evidence-based policy '.
6
Another measure of impact is OHE's presence on social media. OHE continued to have substantial activity on social media throughout 2021. In summary, we published 39 regular blogs online and achieved the following social media presence:
-
Number of publication downloads: 13,879
-
Number of website visits: 140,176
-
LinkedIn followers: 6,112
-
Twitter followers: 5,156
Pro bono activities : The attached research summary for 2021 shows that OHE staff have been engaged in a wide variety of pro bono activities, including membership on advisory panels, boards and committees and eleven associations with Universities. Pro bono activities also include prestigious think tanks, participation on advisory boards, serving on committees, supervising student placements, examining doctoral research theses, and undertaking reviews.

-
Enabling OHE to employ a larger staff team than would be possible using research income alone.
-
Allowing staff to gain knowledge, skills and experience undertaking consulting projects that can be carried across into research and research-related projects.
-
Investing the profits generated from consultancy work as Gift Aided to OHE, subject to the agreement of the Directors of OHE Consulting Limited. This source continued to be essential for OHE's income in 2021.
In 2021, OHE employed an average of 30 staff.

6 Structure, governance, and management in 2021
Figure 1 reflects the OHE governance structure by the end of 2021. At the top of the structure sits the OHE Board of Trustees. The Board is supported by the Policy Committee and the Research Committee . The Policy Committee's purpose is to advise OHE on engaging with policymaking and ensuring that OHE meets its Charitable Objects in this respect. OHE's work has been informing health care and pharmaceutical decision-makers and healthcare payers for decades, building its reputation on producing independent, academically strong research. Instead, the Research Committee guides OHE on research methods, oversees the core research grant programme, and ensures the quality and independence of OHE's research output. Thus, this committee ultimately assures the OHE Board of Directors that OHE's research meets its charitable objectives.

OHE ANNUAL LECTURE 2021
Professor Margaret Kyle gave the 2021 OHE Annual Lecture "Do patents work? Evidence from pharmaceutical innovation". Professor Kyle described the empirical evidence on the effectiveness of patents in the pharmaceutical sector. Specifically, she presented evidence on the rate and direction of innovation linked to patents in pharma. Because they remain a contentious tool in innovation policy, as seen in the current debate over the proposed patent waiver for COVID vaccines, she will also discuss the empirical evidence concerning alternatives to patents, such as prizes and government grants. About 278 registered to the virtual conference and got the slides; the actual attendance was 183.

Results of a Modelling Exercise [Poster presentation] Topic: It is broadly accepted that a medicine's price should align with the value provided to patients and the healthcare system. This is challenging for the growing number of medicines that could serve multiple indications. There has been much discussion of payment models that recognise value at the indication-level, but a divergence of opinion on the implications. We ask: can value-based pricing at the indication-level support better patient access and value whilst protecting the financial sustainability of payers?

| 63 | Date: Dec 1 2021 Presenter: Adrian Towse Event:ISPOR Europe 2021 Location: virtual Presentation title: No Time to Wait: Can Early Access Schemes Work for Gene Therapies? Adrian was the moderator for this session. He explained that gene therapies offer the potential for substantial health gains by targeting the underlying causes of disease, and there are a number already in development. However, there is a stand-off between key stakeholders. How can early access mechanisms (before conventional HTA and P&R) be designed for gene therapies to meet the needs of patients, payers and manufacturers? OHE work has suggested that: •There should be a clear rationale for initiation and termination of an early access scheme •Patients and physicians should be consulted early during the design of an early access scheme. •When reimbursement is appropriate, the price should reflect value. •Data collection should be an integral part of an early access scheme and be designed to inform future assessment.

| Location: Virtual Presentation title: Addressing Payment Challenges for Alzheimer's Disease-Modifying Therapies: US and European Perspectives Adrian was the moderator for this session. He explained that Adrian was the moderator for this session. He referenced an OHE report commissioned in response to the UK G7 in 2014 and set out the reimbursement challenge. The US approval will require payers to address the inherent challenges associated with reimbursement - what is the expected value of therapy, what elements of value should be considered given the large social sector/caregiver spillovers, and how can access to these therapies be made sustainable? In Europe, and in the UK in particular, single-payer systems may face different challenges stemming from the therapy's cost exceeding willingness-to-pay thresholds and healthcare budget thresholds, with many of the benefits accruing to caregivers, reducing out of pocket long term care costs, not usually taken into account.

| 70 | Date: Dec 14 2021 Presenter: Sian Besley Event:Centre for Health Economics (University of York) Health Policy Team Seminar Location: Online Presentation title: The Effect of Distance on Accident and Emergency Department Demand Presentation of research with the following abstract: When individuals choose to attend an accident and emergency department, they have to incur the time and financial costs of travel, which are both likely to increase with distance. In this paper, we use area-level regression analysis to estimate the relationship between travel distance and emergency department demand. We develop a theoretical framework that explains the factors contributing to an individual's choice to attend an emergency service and use it to inform our empirical specification. The primary data source was the hospital episode statistics accident and emergency (HES A&E) dataset for 2018/19, which contains unit-record information on every A&E attendance in England. We calculate small area-level (LSOA-level) variables, including the number of A&E attendances, the average distance travelled to an A&E department and attributed ONS information on population age, gender and social deprivation and GP practice information on workforce and disease prevalence. The area-level linear regression model results suggest that distance reduces emergency department demand. Our main specification yields a distance elasticity of emergency care demand of -0.08, which implies a one standard deviation increase in distance travelled (8.6km or approximately 80% of the mean of 10.7km) is associated with 6.9% fewer attendances (45 fewer attendances at the mean attendances per LSOA). In addition, subgroup analysis shows that the elasticity is substantially smaller for patients admitted to hospital following emergency attendance, highlighting that the severity of the individual's symptoms or injury may be important for determining the role distance travelled plays in the decision to attend an emergency department. This finding supports our theoretical framework implying that patients' trade-off potential health gain with the cost of accessing emergency care in their healthcare choices.

4. External impact
In 2021, OHE' 's research has continued to have a remarkable impact. Below, we list a sample of those we have an explicit record of:
-
Case studies written by OHE on drivers and barriers to innovation in rare and peadiatric diseases was released by EFPIA. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/efpia_case-studies-activity-68264268930347622404lMg/
-
OHE's work on combination therapies was cited in an article on NICE decisions for combinations https://pharmaphorum.com/views-and-analysis/a-problem-combination/
-
Results from an OHE project on the health system capacity value of vaccination and the return on investment on vaccines from a governmental perspective were presented to DHSC.
-
Simon Brassel contributed three educational pieces on cost-effectiveness evaluation, cost-utility analyses and the QALY concept to MedTec Online (MTO). https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mto-medtec-online-gmbh_internationalemaeurkte-medteconlinemedizintechnik-activity-6848511339804131329-yC8Y/
In addition, we anticipate having a further impact on a number of key health care policy issues in 2022 related to research and consulting work undertaken by OHE in 2021. For example, work undertaken for EFPIA on the European Commission's Pharmaceutical Strategy for Europe is expected to be published and used as the basis for EFPIA's engagement in related political discussions and the work for PhRMA on the US HR 3 bill on pharmaceutical drugs' pricing might be used and/or discussed in the US when valuing the pros and cons of such policy.
5. Social Media
