NICE, PHE, MedCity, DigitalHealth.London, March 2019 updated 23 April 2021
  • The framework describes standards for the evidence that should be available, or developed, for DHTs to demonstrate their value in the UK health and care system. This includes evidence of effectiveness relevant to the intended use(s) of the technology and evidence of economic impact relative to the financial risk.
  • The evidence standards framework is intended to be used by technology developers to inform their evidence development plans, and by decision makers who are considering whether to commission a DHT. Section A comprises evidence for effectiveness standards. Section B comprises evidence for economic impact standards.
