  • To examine how the NHS assesses the potential benefits of new or alternative medical technologies;
  • To examine the need for, and feasibility of, a more joined up approach to commissioning in this area;
  • To examine the ways in which NHS Wales engages with those involved in the development/ manufacture of new medical technologies;
  • To examine the financial barriers that may prevent the timely adoption of effective new medical technologies, and innovative mechanisms by which these might be overcome.

 

These terms of reference were informed by the consultation conducted by the Committee in autumn 2012 on the scope of the inquiry.

 

The consultation closed on 18 October 2013
