Abstract
The purpose of the note below is to familiarize readers with the current status and future initiatives of cooperation in the field of health technology assessment (HTA) in the European Union (EU). The European Commission is trying to create a framework for efficient collaboration between member states of EU in the field of HTA and is gradually working on strengthening it. The following initiatives, projects and programs have already been implemented: - Project on Coordination and Development of Health Care Technology Assessment in Europe - The European Collaboration for Assessment of Health Interventions and Technology - European Network for Health Technology Assessment - Beneluxa Initiative, The Valletta Declaration, FINOSE and Fair and Affordable Pricing - European Network for Health Technology Assessment Currently there is an ongoing proposal for an HTA Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council, which is the measurable result of this cooperation.
