Adapted value assessment methods for high-impact “single and short-term therapies” (SSTs)
Adapted value assessment methods for high-impact “single and short-term therapies” (SSTs)
This paper presents adaptations to the ICER value assessment framework methods when the topic under review is a high-impact single or short-term therapy (SST). The adapted methods described below will be implemented beginning with ICER reviews launching in January 2020. As will be noted, several new methods described below will be applied in the review of all topics going forward and therefore dovetail with the overall update to the ICER value framework that will be presented in December. In the future, updates to methods for high-impact SSTs will be performed simultaneously with the updates to the overall value assessment framework. These adapted methods arise following a full-year process during which ICER has sought input from multiple sources. We conducted a systematic review of methods considered for “cures” or “potential cures;” sought input from CADTH, NICE, and other international health technology assessment (HTA) bodies; and performed interviews with leading methods experts and stakeholders, including patient advocacy groups, payers, plan sponsors, and life science companies. From this work ICER developed a separate technical brief that serves as background to the adapted methods presented here.
