Stanberry

Director, Institute for Health Economics and Outcomes Research, Oxford, UK

Benedict Stanberry is an independent health economics and outcomes research consultant. He partners with medical device and life sciences companies to develop the economic and clinical evidence that drives successful market access.

Benedict began his career as a medical lawyer, working on some of the earliest digital health projects before moving into management consulting in 2001. Shortly afterwards, however, he was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer and given only a thirty per cent chance of survival. Upon his recovery, he served as interim chief executive of a Brussels-based healthcare NGO. He was also elected as a local councillor in south-west London, where his responsibilities included overview and scrutiny of healthcare services.

From 2006 to 2009, as a director of a private healthcare provider, Benedict helped establish a new model of cancer care for the south of England. Between 2009 and 2014, he lived in Dubai — designing and delivering executive education programmes for healthcare organisations across the Middle East and Asia-Pacific regions. He continued this vocation upon his return to the UK when he founded the Institute of Healthcare Leadership and Management (IHLM) in Oxford, which is now known as the Institute for Health Economics and Outcomes Research.

Since 2022, Benedict has generated economic and clinical evidence across a range of therapeutic areas. His commissioned and published research includes economic modelling for peripheral arterial and venous diseases, cancer diagnostics, hernia repair, robotic surgery, caesarean births, therapeutic paracentesis and incontinence management. He has also undertaken systematic reviews and meta-analyses of endovascular and oncologic interventions.

Benedict holds both LLB and LLM degrees in law from Cardiff University, a Global Executive MBA from the world-ranked Henley Business School, and an Executive MSc in Healthcare Decision-Making from the London School of Economics and Political Science – a programme delivered in collaboration with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) – in which he achieved a distinction. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine and a member of ISPOR’s Medical Device and Diagnostics Special Interest Group.
