The EDiHTA consortium has officially launched its Open Call for DHT developers/manufacturers to validate the first pan-European Digital Health Technology Assessment (EDiHTA) framework. We invite developers/manufacturers of digital health technologies (DHTs) to participate in a structured piloting phase designed to evaluate the EDiHTA toolkit’s performance in a real-world setting.
As part of our mission to deliver a fit-for-purpose HTA framework for DHTs, EDiHTA will be selecting two DHT use cases for a comprehensive evaluation. The pilots will provide critical insights into how the EDiHTA toolkit supports consistent, transparent and adequate assessments before its wider scale-up across EU markets.
To ensure the highest level of value, each selected DHT will be assigned to a leading European HTA agency for assessment:
- AQuAS (Agencia de Calidad y Evaluación Sanitarias de Cataluña, Spain)
- FinCCHTA (Finnish Coordinating Center for Health Technology Assessment, Finland)
Why Apply?
Selected participants will gain a unique “early-look” advantage, including early access to the EDiHTA platform, specialized training, and direct feedback on potential future HTA requirements for their DHTs. This is a non-funded opportunity to engage in a dialogue with payers, patients and decision-makers while directly shaping the first pan-European HTA framework for digital health.
