    is a patient centric approach to HTA realsitic

    in this episode, we explore the evolving concept of patient centricity in Health Technology Assessment (HTA) with Kathryn Cowie and Ranita Tarchand from Nested Knowledge. while the integration of patient perspectives into HTA is indeed realistic and increasingly feasible, not all countries are doing this, but is patient input enough to make HTA patient centric. if not, is a patient centric apporach to HTA realistic without guidelines or a framework, given how inconsistent patient input is incorporated, and could a patient centric approach be a solution to ensure patient input is embedded within HTA.
