Health Technology Assessment – Monica Hultcrantz’s group

We support evidence-based healthcare by conducting and developing methods for evidence synthesis and health technology assessments (HTA).

Research

We advance methodologies for evidence synthesis and improve methods for HTAs, as well as apply these methods to generate new knowledge informing healthcare decisions. In particular we contribute to the development of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework, guiding the assessment of certainty of evidence and the steps moving from evidence to recommendations and decisions in healthcare. Other areas of interest are how to value planetary health outcomes in HTAs, and methods for patient and public involvement.  

Who we are 

The majority of the team members are employed by HTA Region Stockholm, which is part of Center for Health Economics, Informatics and Healthcare Research (CHIS) – within Stockholm Health Care Services - Stockholms läns landsting (SLSO), under Region Stockholm. One affiliated researcher holds a position at the Swedish agency for health technology assessment and assessment of social services (SBU).
