Biomedical and bioethical issues in Parliamentary TA and in Health Technology Assessment
Poiesis & Praxis, 2004 HTA and TA institutions at national parliaments (PTA) both share the same origin and of course have objectives and some of their methods in common. Nevertheless both TA branches developed in some distance during the 1970s and 1980s. Drawing on the case of biomedicine this paper outlines the differences between HTA and PTA, highlighting the “clinical ...
