NICE Technology Appraisals

Topics:

Technology Appraisals determine whether or not a drug, medical device or surgical procedure should be funded by the NHS, based on its cost-effectiveness

Note

It is important to note that the advice contained within the guidance does not override or replace the individual responsibility of health professionals to make appropriate decisions in the circumstances of their individual patients, in consultation with the patient and/or guardian or carer. This would, for example, include situations where individual patients have other conditions or complications that need to be taken into account in determining whether the NICE guidance is fully appropriate in their case.
