Bilbao, June 25th 2012
Criteria for assessment of new technologies at the
hospital level (mini-HTA) and the national level (HTA)
Helene Arentz-Hansen, Senior researcher PhD, Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services
2. The Norwegian health system
Northern Norway RHA
Population: 5 millions
4 Regional Health Authorities (RHA)
27 Local Health Authorities
Central Norway RHA
Western Norway RHA
South-Eastern Norway RHA
3. National system for evaluation of new technologies
in the specialist health services
Reasons:
Unequal practices for decision-making processes around
introduction of new technologies into the health care system
Ensure equal access to established treatment
Ensure reasonable use of health resources
A need for evidence-based, systematic introduction of new
technologies
HTA and mini-HTA
4. HTA supports decision-making processes at the national
level when introducing new technologies

6. The Norwegian mini-HTA-form
The form is divided into 3 parts:
Part 1: Completed by the proposer
physician, nurse, head of department etc.
Part 2: Completed by a peer reviewer
An ”unbiased” person, for instance from another hospital
Is the evaluation in part one performed satisfactorily?
Part 3: Recommendation for decision-maker
Head of the department, managing director etc.
Should the new technology be introduced into the health service?
7. Mini-HTA-form
Part 1: Completed by the proposer
Content:
1. About the new technology
2. The evidence (effectiveness, safety)
3. Ethics
4. Organisation
5. Costs
6. Summary and conclusions
8. Criteria for using mini-HTA prior to introduction of
new technologies in hospitals
1. When should mini-HTA be used?
2. When should mini-HTA not be used?
9. Criteria for using mini-HTA prior to introduction of
new technologies in hospitals (continued)
1. When should mini-HTA be used?
Uncertainty or disagreement regarding effectiveness
or safety
Ethical issues
10. Criteria for using mini-HTA prior to introduction of
new technologies in hospitals (continued)
2. When should mini-HTA not be used?
A) The effectiveness and safety are known. No ethical issues.
B) It is obvious that the evidence concerning effectiveness and
safety is limited
C) Type of technologies that should be evaluated at the national level
Screening
Highly specialised health care
Drugs
Health economic evaluations
11. How the results of the mini-HTA will be used as
a basis for further decisions
If the effectiveness, safety and costs of the new technology are
acceptable
The hospital can decide to introduce the new technology
12. How the results of the mini-HTA will be used as
a basis for further decisions
Uncertainty remains concerning effectiveness and safety
Exceeding of financial or organisational limits
Ethical considerations of general interest
May lead to differences in services between hospitals
Need for assessment of cost-effectiveness
The decision concerning introduction of the new technology should be
lifted to a regional or national level
14. Summary
A new system for evaluation of new
technologies in the Norwegian health service
will be introduced in 2012
This system is based on Health Technology Assessment
as basis for decisions
Mini-HTA at the local level
HTA at the national level
