Understanding Health Technology Assessment (HTA)

This guide describes how patients and the public can get involved in decisions about what healthcare should be available. It can also be used to help raise awareness of patient needs.

This guide has been produced for Health Equality Europe with the assistance of an advisory group.

Health Equality Europe (HEE) is an informal coalition of people who wish to see the patient voice placed firmly at the heart of healthcare decisions within Europe.

HEE brings together people from a number of countries with a range of expertise united by a commitment to making the patient voice heard. This guide is intended to contribute to raising the patient voice in Europe. HEE was established with  sponsorship from Novartis International AG, Switzerland.
