Public consultation of a core health technology assessments (core HTA)We are happy to announce that the first Core HTA produced within the EUnetHTA Joint Actione 2 Work Package 4 is available for public feedback.
The topic assessed is “Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT ) versus guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (FOBT) for colorectal cancer screening”
This consultation will take place between
March 7th and March 31th 2014.
Objective of public consultationThe aim of this consultation is to obtain feedback on the validity of the core HTA for its intended primary use.
A Core HTA is an extensive package of HTA information intended to serve as an information base for the production of local (e.g. national or regional) HTAs. Most information in the core HTA is presented as “result cards”, each of which contains one or few research question(s) and answer(s) to the question(s). The cards are produced and presented in a structure of nine domains (e.g. effectiveness or ethics), each providing an overview of the technology from a specific perspective.
