Matt Kirchmann – Director
LL.B/B.Ec. (Hons)
Matt is a solicitor and economist, having over the last 15 years focused predominantly on the pharmaceutical and health industries. He has both strong economic credentials, having completed honours in economics and econometrics as well as lecturing at Monash University, in addition to his legal foundations.
Matt also has a particular focus on the economic modelling of the cost-effectiveness of medical technologies (as distinct from their financial impact) and consequently has acquired a broad range of specialised modelling and mathematical skills.
Matt has modelled the financial impact of PBS listings in order to support applications to the PBAC, MSAC and to establish the market viability of introducing new medications into Australia.
