Abstract
Health technology assessment (HTA) is a way to identify and evaluate different procedures used in health care and it plays an important role in health policy and practice in many countries. A HTA typically includes medical, economic, social and ethical aspects of a health care procedure or problem. A recent survey of different HTA agencies by the international network INAHTA showed that most of the agencies include some ethical aspects in the HTAs, but the methods for the ethical evaluation and analysis need to be more refined and systematic. Some approaches to a more thorough process for integrating ethical considerations into the HTA process will be discussed in the presentation.
