Ensuring a predictable process for HTD

This section aims to collect data on product label changes, and whether the dossier was complete when submitted

Indicate whether the JCA assessment group had to revise the final PICO scope to align with changes to the product’s approved indication/label.

Indicate whether the submitted EU HTA dossier was accepted as complete at the time of initial submission, or if the various submissions occurred.

Indicate whether the updated V0.2 EU HTA dossier was accepted as complete following the Second Request for information or clarification.

Ensuring JCA methodology is adaptable to accommodate innovation

This sections aims to capture the nature of PICO responses

The total number of distinct PICO frameworks (Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcome) defined in the JCA report.

The number of PICO frameworks for which the assessors accepted clinical evidence that relied on indirect comparisons.

The number of PICO frameworks for which no evidence was submitted (number of blank fields).

Where there was a positive reimbursement decision, do you think JCA led to quicker or broader patient access?

Select the stated reason why one or more PICOs could not be addressed. Please briefly describe the reason(s) if 'Other'
