The primary objective of health technology assessment (HTA) research is to
provide fundamental information for decision-making regarding the healthcare
system on the national or regional level. Therefore, it is important to
understand to what extent and in what manner (e.g. decision-making, behavior
changes, and information recognition) the information provided by the HTA has
influenced decision-makers. Following its establishment, the National Evidence-based Healthcare
Collaborating Agency (NECA) has generally classified the performance of its
HTA research into the following categories: academic performance, policy
performance, internationalization performance, social performance, and
infrastructure performance. Internal reports have been the main venue for
quantitative evaluations of performance in these categories. However, the HTA
research of NECA has been criticized for its minimal impact on policy and for
concerns related to the reliability of the internal audit results, including failure
to establish an objective evaluation process that involves external evaluators
and information recipients, and—especially for policy performance—failure to
reflect the views of policy-makers beyond those included in the process by
the head of the department. Thus, the necessity of a more systematic
evaluation and management system has long been recognized. Accordingly, in order to establish a system for assessing the influence of
HTA research, we developed a set of influence assessment criteria through
reviews of both domestic and international case analyses and preceding studies,
and as a test case, applied these criteria to HTA research previously conducted
by NECA to analyze its performance and to assess its influence. |
