Preface
We are delighted to present this internationally contributed book on worldwide ini-
tiatives in Hospital-Based Health Technology Assessment (HB-HTA), which is the
first of its kind. The idea of writing a book compiling the experiences of hospitals
around the world in carrying out and using health technology assessment for mana-
gerial decisions originated during the 11th Annual Meeting of the International
Society for HTA (HTAi) in 2014. The growing interest in this field and the lack of
comprehensive published material on the topic lit the spark in our minds.
When we started, our idea was to gather real-world experiences, within a single
publication, on how different hospitals in diverse countries and cultures perform
and use HB-HTA. HTA is in itself a context-based activity; therefore, applying HTA
in hospitals will also have cross-country and intra-country differences. Taking this
into account, we wanted to provide a set of practices that could inspire the develop-
ment of new HB-HTA programs around the globe. This book is not intended to be
an exhaustive source of practical examples, but a representation of relevant exam-
ples from different settings.
We are fortunate to include many of the most experienced and knowledgeable
writers in this field, who have contributed willingly and on time, and we are most
grateful to them for their kindness and commitment.
This book is directed to anyone who wants to initiate or further develop a pro-
gram of HTA in the hospital setting and to those who want to understand more about
the growing HB-HTA momentum. Therefore, the targeted audience is broad, includ-
ing clinicians, nurses, scientists, public health professionals, hospital managers,
national/regional HTA agencies, industry, health service researchers, and
policymakers.
We have enjoyed creating this book, and we hope it will serve as a ready-refer-
ence among the future of collected HB-HTA resources. Please enjoy, and we wel-
come your thoughts and feedback for future editions.
