Pharmacists are being asked to contribute to a new survey on rapid Health Technology Assessments (rHTAs). The research is being conducted by the RCSI School of Population Health and the Health Technology Assessment (HTA) team at HIQA. The research is funded by the HRB and aims to elaborate the definition and role of rHTAs in the context of informing national level policy, health service decisions and international practice.

Led by Dr Barbara Clyne, the researchers are interested in hearing from anyone who has an interest in HTA, particularly if they have experience of being involved in the conduct of one or have used it to inform decision-making. The survey will take approximately 25-35 minutes to complete, and responses are anonymous. If you have any questions, please contact Barbara Clyne at barbaraclyne@rcsi.com or Sharon McLaughlin at sharonmclaughlin@rcsi.ie.
