SOUNDS OF SCIENCE - EPISODE 12
With the entry into force of the EU HTA Regulation in January 2022, the European Commission and EUnetHTA21, a consortium of Member States HTA bodies, have been racing to develop the procedural rules and the methodology for EU Health Technology Assessment (HTA). This is before the first medicinal products will be subject to the new procedure starting 12 January 2025.
The new EU HTA procedure will significantly change the requirements before placing innovative medicinal products on the market, with certain new products having to go through a joint European assessment as a first step. On today’s episode, we’ll review what’s happened in the final drafting stages that took place over the course of 2022 and if this new procedure will replace the fragmented patchwork of national frameworks that currently exist, or if it will only represent yet another step in the process. It's crucial to get this procedure right at the first go in order to speed up patients' access to innovative therapies.
To help us do so, we’re joined by two EU HTA experts:
Ana Palma, Senior Director Global Patient Access & Access Policy, Sobi
Alexander Natz, Secretary General, EUCOPE

EUCOPE's EU HTA Regulation Task Force has been set up to more closely coordinate with members on the engagement with the European Commission and EUnetHTA 12 for the development of the procedural rules and methodology respectively.
