The first European Digital Health Technology Assessment framework co-created by all stakeholders in the European Health Ecosystem
Health systems worldwide are under constant pressure to provide high-quality services. Digital health technologies (DHTs) can be game-changers in improving the quality of healthcare services, but existing Health Technology Assessment (HTA) methodologies are unable to capture the real added value of DHTs.
EDiHTA will be the first flexible, inclusive, validated and ready-for-use European HTA framework allowing the assessment of different DHTs (e.g. telemedicine, mApps, AI) at different Technology Readiness Levels, territorial levels (national, regional and local) and perspectives (e.g. payer, society, hospital).
On 26 March, the EDiHTA project took part in an insightful webinar on Digital Health Technology Assessment & System Transformation, organised by Transforming Health and Care Systems (THCS).
We are excited to introduce the “EDiHTA talks”―our first episode hosted by the European Patients’ Forum Podcast for discussions on Digital Health Technology Assessment (HTA) and its impact on healthcare innovation.
Last week, Joan Segur-Ferrer, our partner from AQuAS, represented the EDiHTA project at the XIII Meeting of the Working Group on Imaging in Dermatology, held on 14 March 2025, in Barcelona.
Last week, EDiHTA had the privilege of participating in the World Evidence, Pricing, and Access (EPA) Congress 2025, held on March 5-6 at the RAI Congress Centre in Amsterdam.
We are excited to announce that our colleague, Joan Segur-Ferrer, will be presenting the EDiHTA project at the XIII Meeting of the Working Group on Imaging in Dermatology, taking place on March 14, 2025, in Barcelona.
On 3 March, Joan Segur-Ferrer, Health Technology Assessment Specialist at AQuAS, presented the EDiHTA project at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025 in Barcelona. At the event, Joan highlighted how robust evaluations and how they will develop—using tools like the AI evaluation guide and the RedETS framework—can help developers identify risks, implementation boundaries and scalability challenges in digital health solutions.
