RESULTS &
CONCLUSIONS
2
The current public participation types of NICE health technology assessment were patient and carer organizations, HTA committee lay members, patient expert and public observers. At the management level, NICE has set up a public participation team and made guidelines on public participation matters. For different public participation types, NICE has established different selection procedures, such as expression of interest, NICE invitation, open recruitment, nomination, NICE decision, etc. The public participation types are various and in the whole assessing process from the initial determination of the scope of the health technology assessment to the final appeal. Also, NICE has established a flexible and dynamic evaluation feedback system to optimize the way of public participation and the health technology assessment process; NICE has undertaken extensive international cooperation and exchanges to promote public participation at the national and international levels. It is suggested that our country should combine the national conditions, clarify the channel of public participation in health technology evaluation, set up a working group of public participation affairs, strengthen patients’ participation in evaluation and feedback, improve decision-making transparency, and improve the public participation mechanism of health technology evaluation from the aspects of channel opening, management mechanism, evaluation feedback, information disclosure and so on.
