Mapping Current Decision-Making Pathways And Reimbursement Processes For High-Risk Medical Devices In EU/EEA Member States And The UK: A Scoping Review

This scoping review highlights the significant variations in how European countries currently integrate HTA into national reimbursement frameworks for high-risk medical devices, how the national decisions are implemented and how the uncertainty of evidence is assessed.
