Synopsis:

In this course, students will be introduced to the issue of health technology assessment - HTA. Health technologies will be defined and the purpose of HTA described. Principles of evidence based medicine (EBM) as the basis of HTA. Students will learn the structure of studies, especially EUnetHTA Core Model. Calculate cost effectiveness and get input data (costs and outcomes). Specifics of using HTA at the level of national regulator and at the level of hospital management. Particular attention will be paid to the specifics of HTAs for medical devices. The conclusion of the lectures will be devoted to ethical questions of practical use of HTA.
