    Health Technology Assessment in India: Necessity, Progress and Future Plans
    (Journal of Health Management, 2022) Hardik Bhatia; Sreedhar Dharmagadda

Health technology assessment (HTA) is being looked at to provide efficient decision-making and helping in priority setting for the policymakers. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has, therefore established a Medical Technology Assessment Board as a way of institutionalising the HTA framework and methodology in India. Despite some challenges, the future looks bright for HTA in India.
