Materials & methods: A review of appraisals published by National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in the UK was conducted. A total of 20casestudies employing RWE were identified and compared across five additional health technology assessmentagencies: Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC) (Scotland), CADTH (Canada), INESSS (Quebec), HAS (France)and IQWiG (Germany). Results: Of 80 RWE references from 20 case studies from NICE, 67 were identified in the respective CADTH submissions, 46 in IQWiG, 37 in INESSS, 37 in HAS, and 33 in SMC. NICE had the highest RWE acceptance rate (90%), followed by HAS (88%), SMC (82%), INESSS (73%), IQWiG (68%) and CADTH (67%). Conclusion: RWE was generally accepted by respective committees, allowing improved access to innovative treatments.
