Description
Deliberative processes for health technology assessment (HTA) are intended to facilitate participatory decision making, using discussion and open dialogue between stakeholders. Increasing attention is being given to deliberative processes, but guidance is lacking for those who wish to design or use them. Health Technology Assessment International (HTAi) and ISPOR initiated a joint task force that developed comprehensive guidance to address this gap. This webinar will be of benefit to all those involved in establishing or improving deliberative processes for HTA in local contexts.
The good practices task force report, published in Value in Health and the International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care in June 2022, provides guidance and an accompanying checklist for (1) developing the governance and structure of an HTA program, and (2) informing how the various stages of an HTA process might be managed using deliberation. The tools can also be used for independent scrutiny of deliberative processes.
This webinar, led by the task force co-chairs, will focus on why a joint HTAi-ISPOR Task Force was formed to develop guidance, they will present the minimum set of considerations on the use of deliberative processes in HTA (checklist), and the approach used. During the webinar, participants will have the opportunity to discuss what efforts could be made to ensure the appropriate use and uptake of the guidance, potential gaps and what more might be needed.

• Learn about the development of good practice guidelines from the authors themselves
• Learn how the governance and structure of an HTA program, and the various stages of an HTA process, might be managed using deliberation
