The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is revising its criteria for the routing of technologies to the Highly Specialised Technologies (HST) Programme. In this article, we explore NICE’s proposed changes to the criteria and provide our thoughts on what the revisions may mean for manufacturers of ultra-rare products.
Our Rare Diseases team have recently published recommendations on collecting clinical expert judgement to support the reimbursement of new rare disease therapies.
The manuscript provides actionable recommendations on collecting clinical expert judgement, and is the first to provide specific guidance to overcome the challenges commonly faced in the rare disease space.
Our Rare Diseases team are committed to actively contributing research to overcome the challenges faced by industry and the patient community. Our research contributions include peer-reviewed manuscripts, panels and posters, to high impact journals and international conferences such as ISPOR and ISMPP.
