Clinical and Economic Assessment of Medical Devices

Original language description

Resources for health care are inevitably limited; thus, it is necessary to make decisions on a regular basis, what health care will be reimbursed from the public health insurance, and what care will be behind the limits of possibilities of the particular society. Since 1980s, methods of health technology assessment (HTA) have been developed, and HTA has become a standard policy in evaluating pharmaceuticals worldwide. A desirable application of the same method-ology to medical devices appeared extremely difficult, though. A possible solution is an appli-cation of the multiple-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). We recommended two MCDA meth-odologies for completion of HTA studies in medical devices, the first suitable for the national regulator, while the other corresponding to the needs of individual hospitals (within so-called hospital-based HTA). The results of the second approach led to an interest in establishing HTA units in large Czech university hospitals. Furthermore, the presented review deals with particular, but important issues concerning management of medical devices. These include pricing, public procurement, allocation (diffusion) across the country and different types of hospitals, and early HTA (definitely interesting for the industry).
