About the webinar

The objective of this webinar is to describe aHTA methods identified globally, present some examples of how aHTA is used in different countries, and the benefits and barriers of implementing aHTA.

Context

Health Technology Assessment (HTA) is a multidisciplinary process that uses explicit methods to determine the value of a health technology at different points in its lifecycle, to inform decision-making to promote an equitable, efficient, and high-quality health system.

However, conducting a full HTA can be time and resource consuming, which may impact countries’ ability to conduct full HTA for each intervention.

Adaptive HTA (aHTA) is an approach to conduct HTA by adjusting for constraints such as time, data availability or capacity.
