Comprehensive Needs Analysis For Health Technology Assessment Studies and Improvement Proposal

Increase in chronic diseases prevalence, longer life expectancy, and improvements in science and engineering speed up the innovations in healthcare technology. In this study it is aimed to provide both a deep understanding in needs of recent health technology assessments and an improvement proposal for health technology assessments studies based on multi criteria decision making (MCDM). It is concluded that an integrated MCDM model is essential for satisfying the current needs of HTA studies.
