Among the other things, HTAi is a platform for members to have fruitful dialogue on specific themes which are of high interest for the global HTA community.
Early HTA is an area of high interest, and a group of HTAi members is in the process of establishing an Early HTA Working Group. At this time, the group is issuing a call for all parties who may be interested in working on the definition of Early HTA. The group will meet during the Annual Meeting, on Tuesday, June 27 | 16:15 – 17:15 at the Home Ground Bistro (which is attached to the Conference Centre). To join the meeting, please contact Janet Bouttell at janet.bouttell@glasgow.ac.uk.
Additionally, a pre-conference workshop on Early HTA will be held on Saturday, June 24 | 13:00 – 16:30 at the upcoming HTAi Annual Meeting, in Adelaide. All interested members are invited to register. The group also have a panel presentation entitled “What Is Early HTA And How Can It Facilitate Timely Patient Access To Valuable Innovations” on Monday, June 26 | 13:20-14:45. If you are working in this space or interested in finding out more about Early HTA, it would be great to see you there.
