MedSKU – Medical Market Monitoring by Brand and SKU
SKU-level consulting service to revolutionize your medical device pricing and market strategy by analyzing competitor sales data on a monthly or quarterly basis.
SKU-level Tracking for Medical Device Markets
Making strategic decisions with confidence can be hard when the med-tech industry is so private and guarded. While market reports help you understand overall trends and investment opportunities, it doesn’t guide the small details of your medical device strategy.
MedSKU is a custom consulting service that provides the level of detail that has never been so easy to obtain for medical device companies of any size. The service is customized to the exact brands and SKUs you want to track and updated at a frequency that fits your timeline.
The SKU-level service tracks sales by unique company product codes (SKU’s) across 1700+ reporting US medical facilities and provides iData’s clients with a live overview of the market demand. By analyzing the medical device sales data by brand and SKU, you can uncover competitor weaknesses and opportunities that you can take advantage of to build winning pricing strategies.

How is Competitor Pricing Data Possible?
Competitor pricing information is always too unreliable, right? Not in this case.
MedSKU consulting uses a sample of 1700+ reporting hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) to gather purchase order and sales information. After combining this data with over a decade of the historical market data, MedSKU is able to deliver a highly accurate depiction of the market that is used to identify growth opportunities and guide strategic market positioning.
iData provides market research through syndicated reports and custom consulting to the top medical device manufacturers, who trust the data knowing that it is based on a rigorous methodology built around primary research and procedure volumes. MedSKU takes advantage of this methodology, which uses multiple data sources specifically geared to the medical industries, including interviews with stakeholders, government sales data, manufacturer and distributor price lists, SEC filings, procedure volumes, reimbursement data, and much more.
