The HTA Core Model® A brief introduction
3 likes1,756 views
The document introduces the HTA Core Model developed by the European Network for Health Technology Assessment, aimed at standardizing health technology assessments (HTA) across Europe to improve the applicability and understanding of HTA results. It outlines nine key domains of assessment, including health problems, safety, clinical effectiveness, and economic evaluation, with both full and rapid HTA processes described. The initiative promotes collaboration and knowledge sharing while ensuring timely and reliable insights for health technologies.

European network for Health Technology Assessment | JA2 2012-2015 | www.eunethta.eu Starting points Two problems: HTA implemented differently across Europe – reduced applicability of foreign reports Varying structure of reports – extraction of data from reports is often difficult Aim: attempt to defined and standardise elements of an HTA to facilitate shared understanding of HTA and promote international use of HTA results May 8, 2015 3

Health problem and current use of technology A0001: For which health conditions, and for what purposes is the technology used? A0002: What is the disease or health condition in the scope of this assessment? A0003: What are the known risk factors for the disease or health condition? 4. Clinical effectiveness D0001:What is the expected beneficial effect of the intervention on mortality? D0020: Does use of the test lead to improved detection of the condition?

European network for Health Technology Assessment | JA2 2012-2015 | www.eunethta.eu Core HTAs contain an extensive assessment of health technology through utilizing all nine domains of HTA included in the HTA Core Model. Rapid HTAs contain a narrower analysis of health technology, limited to a subset of domains and performed typically in a faster pace 5 applications: • Diagnostic technologies • Medical and surgical interventions • Pharmaceuticals • Screening technologies • Rapid REA (for pharmaceuticals) only first 4 domains are assessed HTA Core Model 7 Core HTA
