NICE launches PRIMA to health-check economic models
7 December 2017 - NICE Scientific Advice offers a new service for healthcare product developers to check the quality of their economic models.
Health economic models are used to demonstrate the value of a product and are an important (required in some settings) part of the process for achieving reimbursement, market access and informing health policy decisions.
NICE has launched Preliminary Independent Model Advice (PRIMA), a detailed peer review service to help developers of drugs, medical devices and diagnostics, and public health interventions ensure the quality of their model structure, coding, usability and transparency.
