<p>The Medical Technology (MedTech) Strategy, published in February 2023, aims to ensure that everyone has timely access to safe, effective and innovative medical technologies when they need it, no matter where they live in the country.</p><p>A number of initiatives are in development, including identification of technology suitable to be adopted at scale, wider multi-tech evaluations by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence to identify effective technology, and expansion of outcome registries across England to improve visibility over unwarranted variation. This work will be supported by the establishment of national clinical leadership councils, to advise on the best products, and promote consistency across the National Health Service to see the best products reaching patients.</p><p>We are also promoting meaningful choice of MedTech in the community, making it easier for patients, healthcare professionals or purchasers to compare, contrast and select the most appropriate products.</p> |
