Key skills for patients in health technology assessment: knowledge, communication, leadership, negotiation, and personal disease experience. #HTAi2025 #HealthcareInnovation
Challenge: increasing patient associations' participation in technology assessment. Training, clear language, and AI use can help bridge the gap. #HTAi2025 #PatientEngagement
Three pillars for fair health decisions: quality patient contributions + proper analysis + real integration of their perspective. Technology centered on people. #HTAi2025 #HealthTechnology
Patients are key in health decisions: personal experience matters as much as scientific evidence. Brazil and Argentina share strategies for patient involvement in health technology assessment. #HTAi2025 #PatientCenteredCare
FINAL THOUGHTS
β’ Argentina has made progress in institutionalizing patient involvementβ
but gaps remain.
β’ Challenges include representation, technical complexity, and limited early-stage participation.
β’ Capacity building and accessible tools are essential
