Webinar: Ethical analyses at HTA agencies: challenges and opportunities

Hosted by the HTAi Ethics Interest Group, this webinar will discuss the challenges and opportunities for being involved in conducting ethical analyses at HTA agencies. Bart Bloemen, co-chair of the IG on ethics, will present the work that the interest group is currently conducting on a paper that address this topic. Following this introduction, two speakers will present their experiences with working as an ethicist at HTA institutes. Renata Axler leads the development of ethics methodologies and practices at the Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH). Lars Sandman is professor at Linköping University, and also assigned as ethics advisor for Swedish health care authorities and director at the National Centre for Priorities in Health. Both will present examples of their work, and reflect upon the lessons they have learned with respect to being involved in ethical analyses in this context. These presentations will be the basis and an invitation to the audience for exchanging ideas about how to advance this interesting area of HTA.
