If you’ve been keeping up with the news you’ll know that since March this year, Kranus Edera has been permanently listed as a digital health application by the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices. But the journey did not stop there. Last week Kranus Health achieved another milestone: successful price negotiations with the GKV-Spitzenverband, which is in charge of negotiating the reimbursement amount for new medications from pharmaceutical manufacturers. Kranus Edera has now secured one of the highest permanent reimbursement prices ever recorded for a DiGA in Germany: €235 (incl. VAT).
To provide some context for this exciting development we’re revisiting our episode with Jens Noertershaeuser, Founder & Co-CEO of Kranus Health. In their own words, Kranus Health’s mission is to revolutionize men’s health by providing innovative and accessible healthcare solutions. As one of only 10 companies with a permanent approval, Kranus Edera is the only the first digital health app (DiGA) for the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
In this episode, we cover:
- The background to Kranus Health
- The focus on men’s health and erectile dysfunction as a flagship product
- Products in development and the future of Kranus Health
- The funding journey
- Patient experience using the product
- Evidence generation and the DiGA process
- Insurance company reimbursment
