The UK’s National Institute for health and Care Excellence (NICE) has announced that it will be working closely with the Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH) and the US Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER) to find common ground and smooth processes around the handling of confidential information about health technologies.
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) plans to speed up its processes for evaluating lower-risk treatments using a lighter touch approach. This will free up time to consider the increasing number of more complex applications. NICE states that this method will make its assessments faster, enabling quicker access to promising new treatments.
