We are pleased to share that the EDiHTA publication titled “Towards a harmonised Health Technology Assessment framework for Digital Health Technologies in Europe” has been selected as an Editor’s Choice paper in the April 2026 issue of Value in Health, the official journal of ISPOR.

In this final episode of the EDiHTA mini-series, we explore how digital medical devices are transforming healthcare across Europe. Host Flavia Topan is joined by patient advocate Dave Chuter to discuss key issues such as patient safety, trust, data protection and the role of patients in health technology assessment (HTA).

The EDiHTA team successfully held its webinar on 25 February 2026, presenting the EDiHTA Open Call for digital health technology developers and manufacturers. If you were unable to attend, the webinar recording and presentation slides are now available.

With the EU Health Technology Assessment Regulation (HTAR) now in its implementation phase and the European Health Data Space (EHDS) Regulation formally adopted and entering its transition phase, attention is rapidly shifting from legislative ambition to practical implementation.

The EDiHTA consortium invites digital health technology (DHT) developers and manufacturers to join an upcoming webinar dedicated to the EDiHTA Open Call, currently open for applications. This session will provide detailed information about the Open Call, including eligibility criteria, timelines, and the piloting process and will offer participants the opportunity to ask questions directly to the EDiHTA team.

On 16–17 February, the EDiHTA Co-Creation and Evaluation Workshop brought together 50 key stakeholders in Brussels for two days of structured dialogue and validation.
