Why PBAC’s agenda is a box of curiosities

One response

1. The improved agendas are welcomed, including the increased detail, until the plain language summaries for consumer organisations are in place. In the meantime, it’s appreciated when sponsors are providing consumer organisations with plain language information about the critical aspects of the submission including PICO, and adverse events as well as domains considered in economic evaluation. When a more formal process exists between Department and industry, it should add the strengths of transparency, increased assurance of balanced/non promotional information and further support quality meaningful plain language information. We know this information helps patients focus on those aspects of their patient knowledge (6 categories of knowledge not usually documented in the evidence) which are needed to understand the value of a health technology.
