Feb 2020

The HTA unit of the Lombardy region opens the possibility for the public to comment on the health technologies which are in the assessment phase. Those are the technologies about which MTRC already wrote in December 2019.

The call is open until February 28, 2020.

During the same period, the draft HTA reports will be reviewed by scientific experts. From March, the revised versions of the technical HTA reports and any contributions collected through the public consultations will be used by the HTA Regional Commission for the development of appraisal judgments, a phase that includes the production of recommendations regarding the appropriate use of technologies evaluated.
