Two broad categories of disruptions that have occurred in other industries are poised to impact life sciences: 1. Shift value within or across industries. Digital has both removed intermediaries within an industry’s value chain, such as book stores and recruiters, and added intermediaries, such as stores for digital music and mobile apps. 2. Change the nature of control points. The critical control points for influencing decisions or actions within healthcare value chains have also changed. Physical presence and scale and scope have ceased to be the sole influencer as digital technology has promoted the emergence of new control points—including customer data, subscriptions and personal, smart devices.

An analysis of how digital disruptions would shift value this value demonstrates the potential for disruption by incumbents and new entrants: Digitalized Business Model Potential Impact in Type 2 Diabetes Provide a substitute for treatment or medication 86 million Americans are pre-diabetic $3.8 billion in annual potential savings Enable the sharing economy $400 - 500 million could be saved if anti-diabetic supplies were fulfilled through sharing among patients Convert healthy activities into currency Increases in medication adherence of only 20% could reduce total health spending by $1,074 for every person with diabetes, resulting in total savings of $1.4 billion Set the standard for treatment $1.9 billion could be saved in diabetes-related physician visit treatment algorithms and remote monitoring Create new intermediaries $697 annually could be saved per patient using digital for diagnosis and treatment = $19.2 billion Example: Diabetes Sources: National Diabetes Statistics Report, 2014http://www.cdc.gov/diabetes/pdfs/data/2014-report-estimates-of-diabetes-and-its-burden-in-the-united-states.pdf; General Diabetes Facts, http://jdrf.org/about-jdrf/fact-sheets/general-diabetes-facts; and Statistics About Diabetes, http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/statistics., Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study (DPPOS) Highlights, http://www.endocrineweb.com/professional/meetings/diabetes-prevention-program-outcomes-study-dppos-highlights, Diabetes Care, Volume 36, April 2013, Supplementary Data,http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/suppl/2013/03/05/dc12- 2625.DC1/DC122625SupplementaryData.pdf. , The Sharing Economy Holds Promise for More Goods to Be Offered at Near Zero Marginal Cost, http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/234541; and Web Black Market in Diabetic Supplies Costs Government $200m, http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/03/11/web-black-market-in-diabetic-supplies-costs-government-200m.html, Sokol MC, McGuigan KA, Verbrugge RR, Epstein RS.

Assess opportunities and risks pertaining to digital substitutes 2. Conduct robust ongoing patient value analysis based on real-world examples 3. Define “rep of the future” to convey value proposition of therapies to new intermediaries unbounded by geography 4. Build capabilities to facilitate and engage with customer communities 5. Develop an ecosystem for digital currency

Accenture’s research shows: digital transformers focus 2X as much of their digital investments on growth (40%) as digital followers (23%).

The analysis is a directional estimate of a blended digital benefit for the industry; taking into account the varying levels of direct sales support and marketing promotion for pharmaceutical brands based on life-cycle stage (e.g., new vs. mature). A formal benchmarking study was not undertaken as part of this analysis. Our estimates for the impact of digital services on diabetes are based on the 2014 CDC diabetes prevalence figures on the number of diabetics and the cost for treating diabetes in the US. For each disruption, the impact was calculated based on the change to the number of patients, visits, or expenses as described in each section. 1 Source: IMS Health Market Prognosis, June 2013.
