Description:

EDiHTA (European Digital Health Technology Assessment) is a European project funded by the Horizon Europe programme that aims to develop the first European framework for assessing digital health technologies, such as telemedicine, mobile apps and artificial intelligence-based systems. The framework is designed to be flexible, inclusive, validated and ready to use, and applicable across different levels of technological maturity, territorial levels (national, regional and local) and assessment perspectives (payer, society and hospital).

The framework is being co-created with all stakeholders in the European health ecosystem (HTA agencies, decision-makers, patients, healthcare professionals and industry), digitalised into a web platform and validated through pilot studies in European hospitals.
