註釋The goal of health technology assessment (HTA) is to improve the quality and cost-effectiveness of healthcare, and ultimately improve the health of people. This goal is reached by providing decision-makers with high-quality information about the clinical effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and broader impact--including social and ethical implications--of health technologies, which encompass drugs, medical technologies and health interventions. In Canada, agencies that perform HTA are well established at the national level (Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health) and also in some provinces (the Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux in Quebec, the Ontario Health Technology Advisory Committee and Medical Advisory Secretariat in Ontario, and the Institute of Health Economics in Alberta).
