In 2020, LCP launched its Health Analytics practice, dedicated to providing analytical and research services for organisations across the life sciences and healthcare sectors. Our multidisciplinary team brings together scientists, clinicians, statisticians, epidemiologists, health economists, strategy consultants, and health data scientists alongside our established actuarial, analytics, and technology specialists to develop innovative solutions addressing fundamental healthcare challenges.
Our mission is to transform health systems from being importers of illness to exporters of health, and to support our clients to deliver value to patients. We have already established a reputation for excellence in market access strategy, real-world evidence generation, and health economic modelling and aim to further build on this foundation by expanding our capabilities and skills of the team.
What do we do?
LCP’s Health Analytics team works across the healthcare and life sciences markets, combining health expertise with innovative approaches to tackle leading health issues and address knowledge gaps for our clients. Our main areas of work include:

- Health economic modelling: Creating robust, evidence-based economic evaluations to inform healthcare decision-making.
- Evidence synthesis and statistics: Conducting systematic literature reviews and meta-analyses to summarise existing research comprehensively and objectively. Analysing data from clinical trials and real-world sources using a range of statistical methods.
