How much does a healthcare data licence cost?

There is no list price for most of this market. Of the 91 providers listed, only 2 publish an actual figure and a further 7 describe a pricing model without naming a number. The published figures are for provider-reference datasets and run from just under $1,000 a year to about $17,500; patient-level real-world data is quoted per engagement and is normally an enterprise contract.

What is the difference between real-world data and HCP intelligence?

Real-world data describes patients — de-identified claims and clinical records used for research. HCP intelligence describes practitioners and organisations — profiles, affiliations and contact details used for commercial targeting. They are bought by different teams and are not substitutes.

Which healthcare data providers publish their pricing?

2 of the 91 providers listed publish an actual figure, and 7 more describe a pricing model without naming a number. Where a record's cost field is empty, the vendor says nothing public about price.
