Key to delivering UK policies on clinical governance, evidence-based practice and value for money is Health Technology Assessment (HTA). Despite the provision of HTAs through the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), local health organizations still undertake HTA and make decisions based on them. In some regions, capacity is provided by centralized arrangements, but in others provision is ad hoc. This rapid needs assessment evaluates the provision of HTA in the south-west peninsula, and its scope, content and quality.
