BIA response to NICE consultation on integrated topic prioritisation and strategic principles

The BIA has responded to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)’s consultation on integrated topic prioritisation and strategic principles. For further details about the consultation, please visit the consultation page on the NICE website.

The BIA welcomes NICE’s intention to establish a new overarching integrated approach to prioritisation and topic selection that aims to improve NICE’s prioritisation work and coordination of relevant NICE guidance. However, the BIA recommends that NICE provides substantial additional clarity on the consultations proposals as detailed in our response.
