Medical Technology Assessment as an Administrative Instrument: Can it be Useful for Decision Support on a Local Basis?

Abstract

The broad perspective and synthetic approach of technology assessment raises the question whether the technology assessment model can be utilised for practical decision support. The idea is tested in the environment of local care decision making. Technology assessment‐like management instruments for assisting goal formulation, enhancement of organisational efficiency and quality assurance are presented.
