Changes to charging for Technology Appraisal and Highly Specialised Technologies consultation

This consultation closed on:
Tuesday 19 December 2023

In November 2023 we held a consultation on proposed changes to the cost recovery mechanism for technology appraisals (TA) and highly specialised technologies (HST).

We received feedback on:

  • fees for 2024-25
  • evaluation timelines and commitment to pay
  • introduction of a change fee
  • a charge for technical engagement
  • the charge for pilot topics and amendments to processes
  • updates to refund procedures.

We have summarised the key themes from the consultation and developed a written response.

The changes described, including the 2024/25 fees, will come into effect from 1 April 2024.

The charging procedures provide full details of our charging terms and conditions.
