Healthcare decisions rely not only on clinical effectiveness but also on whether interventions provide value for the resources they require. Full economic evaluations<\/strong> offer a structured way to guide these choices by weighing both costs and consequences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In this combined lecture, we will examine the limits of clinical trial data<\/strong> and highlight the role of decision modelling<\/strong> in filling evidence gaps. We\u2019ll consider when to develop core models<\/strong> versus adapt existing ones, with practical examples, and then walk through the typical HTA submission process<\/strong>. Finally, we will look at the European HTA framework of 2025<\/strong>, and its implications for research and practice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
