  8. UNLOCK YOUR GLOBAL BUSINESS POTENTIAL The UK In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) market, worth $1.09bn in 2011 is one of the fastest-growing IVD markets n Europe, with growth forecast to average 7.1% from 2011 to 2018 - outpacing both France and Germany. • In Vitro Diagnostics - the UK opportunity UK IVD market valued at £1.09bn in 2011 2 Million Pathology tests are carried out every day in the NHS • In England in one year the following are carried out, processed and/ or examined: • over 500 million biochemistry tests • 130 million haematology tests • over 50 million microbiology requests • over 13 million histopathology slides • 4 million cytology slides. 2 Million Pathology tests are carried out every day in the NHS In Vitro Diagnostics The UK IVD market has over 200 companies 70% of clinical decisions in the NHS are based on diagnostics tests

  9. UNLOCK YOUR GLOBAL BUSINESS POTENTIAL • Treating almost 1 million patients every day, the NHS is the largest unified healthcare system in the world • In 2011-12, the UK spent approximately £128bn on the NHS, of which 4% was spent on pathology services. • In Vitro Diagnostics - the UK opportunity Point of care testing comprises of the performance of a test in the immediate vicinity to a patient to provide a rapid result outside the conventional laboratory environment In Vitro Diagnostics Laboratory medicine comprises services which provide knowledge and diagnostic information for the care of individual patients through the scientific analysis of specimens of blood, fluids, tissue and other samples.

  10. UNLOCK YOUR GLOBAL BUSINESS POTENTIAL • Demand across virtually all disciplines of pathology has risen within the UK. • 95% of pathology testing services (laboratory medicine) are still provided in house by the NHS. Despite this, the independent market in pathology, is a rapidly expanding opportunity for industry to engage directly with the NHS to service the increasing demand. • The Report of the Review of NHS Pathology Services in England by Lord Carter of Cole in 2008 recognised Pathology as a large and important clinical service which touches the lives of many: • Employing 25,000 staff • Costing the NHS in the order of £2.5 billion a year • Representing nearly 4 per cent of total NHS expenditure • Laboratory Medicine in the UK – A Growth Opportunity for industry In Vitro Diagnostics

  11. UNLOCK YOUR GLOBAL BUSINESS POTENTIAL The emergence of new organisations and programmes within the NHS to meet the changing healthcare delivery model provide a range of opportunities for your business to tap into: • Laboratory Medicine in the UK – a change in healthcare delivery has led to opportunities for companies providing pathology services • Delivery of healthcare within the NHS is shifting towards: • Earlier prevention • Increasing personalisation (i.e. via the ‘genomic revolution’) • Care delivery closer to the patient’s home • Increasingly integrated healthcare delivery between care providers Public Health England (PHE) will lead on the development of a 21st Century health and well being service. The UK National Screening Committee and NHS Screening programmes have become part of PHE in the restructuring of the NHS through the 2012 Health and Social Care Act. Public Health England The NHS Screening Programme looks at a wide range of disease areas at different stages in the life of the population. Some tests are population wide but triggered by reaching ceratin age points while others can be focused on at risk populations. Many of these service rely significantly on pathology services opening new opportunities for developing improved technology or data management systems. NHS Health Check NHS Health Check I focuses on prevention and early intervention and is a national risk assessment and prevention programme that systematically targets the top seven causes of preventable deaths: high blood pressure, smoking, high cholesterol, obesity, poor diet, physical inactivity and alcohol consumption. NHS Screening Programme The NHS Genetic Testing Network was established to: ensure the same level of genetic services across the UK ensure that the services are of high quality, check that new genetic tests put forward for acceptance into the UKGTN listing are effective to influence the way the NHS manages genetic services. NHS Genetic Testing Network

  12. UNLOCK YOUR GLOBAL BUSINESS POTENTIAL • The Report of the Review of NHS Pathology Services in England outlined the need for NHS laboratory medicine to: • Embrace a process of modernization • Adapt to the genomic revolution, along with the new tests it will bring • Develop to meet people’s changing expectations: high quality, safe and efficient health care services, delivered closer to home • Redesign and streamline services around people and the main users’ requirements for pathology-based investigations • Create a strong local clinical leadership and a business orientated management infrastructure • Recognise its services as a core clinical service in relation to its impacton the patient’s journey and therefore must be planned, commissioned anddelivered as part of an integrated health care system • Embrace managed networks as a new delivery model. For the NHS to work with industry in the creation of a small number of well-equipped facilities to provide the vast majority of pathology services in England. • Laboratory Medicine in the UK – movement towards managed networks with industry collaboration The move from small in-house laboratories to managed networks Path Links is a single managed Clinical Pathology Network operating across Lincolnshire. Path Links has demonstrated substantial gains that came from consolidation and integration of laboratory testing (including histopathology and microbiology) across multiple hospitals .Moving towards a managed service across hospital department to consolidate costs and maximising the benefits for patients. Serving a population of approximately 1 million, Path Links processes 4.5 million specimens, performs 20 million tests and generates 5 million test reports every year.

  13. UNLOCK YOUR GLOBAL BUSINESS POTENTIAL • Laboratory Medicine in the UK – opportunities for digital pathology and genetic testing • Digital Pathology – Innovative technologies are opening the way for improving efficiencies and outcomes • The emergence of new Digital Pathology systems could enable a completely new approach to histopathology, coupling efficiency savings with more accurate diagnosis. Companies such as Roche Diagnostics, GE and Philips are working directly with the NHS to understand the potential impact of this new technology on both system efficiencies and patient outcomes. • Genetic Testing – New tests being delivered to personalise healthcare • The NHS genetic Testing Network provides a strong base for the introduction and validation of new genetic tests into the healthcare provision in the UK. • Companies such as DNA Electronics a spin put of Imperial College and Oxford Nanopore spun out from Oxford University have led the move to enable rapid genome analysis which will support a much wider use of genetic testing and enable the use of new tests to support stratified medicine developments.
