Value-Based Healthcare: Lessons from a HEOR Expert | BioPharma Unscripted! Ep.7
Join Marcus Metcalfe as he speaks with Colette Mankowski, a veteran in Health Economics, Outcomes Research & Market Access with over 25 years of industry experience. In this candid conversation, Colette shares her unconventional journey into health economics, her career trajectory at Astellas, and her transition to independent consulting and mindfulness coaching.
Colette explains how she rose from medical information to become Executive Director of a 25-person regional HEOR team, while providing valuable insights on the evolution of health economics in pharmaceutical decision-making. She discusses why health economics should be integrated from Phase 1 trials, the importance of value-based evidence, and how the US pharmaceutical market is changing through the Inflation Reduction Act.
Beyond her technical expertise, Colette opens up about leadership values, the importance of psychological safety in teams, and how mindfulness techniques have transformed her approach to challenges in her career and personal life.

How health economics evolved from an overlooked function to a strategic necessity

The challenges and rewards of transitioning to independent consulting
