2024 Methods Summit
The Future of Patient-Centered Health Technology Assessment
March 14, 2024 - Washington, DC
At the Center’s 5th Annual Methods Summit, we delved into the forefront of patient-centered Health Technology Assessment (HTA) to explore its future direction.
The Summit aimed to bridge the gap between theory and practice by exploring actionable steps that stakeholders can take to implement patient-centered HTA effectively. Attendees had the opportunity to engage in thought-provoking discussions, explore patient-focused methodologies, network with thought leaders, and contribute to shaping the future landscape of HTA.
This was a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of patient-centered health technology assessment and play a vital role in advancing research, policy, and practice.
