Health technology assessment (HTA) is used to determine the relative costs and benefits of health technologies, often employing health economic evaluation to inform decision-making regarding access, prioritization, reimbursement, and pricing. Its purpose is to help stakeholders make informed decisions that harness the benefits of technology while getting value for money.
Health Technology Assessment in Canada: Opportunities for Optimization and Redesign discusses the HTA landscape in Canada, assesses two international approaches and learnings for Canada (the United Kingdom and Germany), and identifies opportunities for HTA redesign to ensure value for dollars. One of the important challenges to be addressed in HTA is how it is used from a policy and practice perspective—that is, does HTA adequately influence decisions and does it support an efficient and effective health care system?
