Opportunity to apply for Joint Scientific Consultations within EU HTAR framework now open

On June 2, 2025, the submission period for Joint Scientific Consultations (JSCs) requests under the EU Health Technology Assessment Regulation (HTAR) framework opened. This marks the second submission window opened by the European Commission for JSCs under the HTAR. While the first call was limited to medicines, the current call is open to medical devices as well.

JSCs allow developers to consult on study planning for their products, focusing on the data and evidence needed for an eventual Joint Clinical Assessment (JCA). This process is intended to support more efficient evidence generation and improve the overall quality of submissions.

Developers of medical devices and medicines can now apply for the following planned JSC time slots:

  • 29 September–2 October 2025 (Briefing document by September 01, 2025);
  • 27–30 October 2025 (Briefing document by September 29, 2025);
  • 24–27 November 2025 (Briefing document by October 27, 2025);
  • 12–15 January 2026 (Briefing document by December 1, 2025).

JSC requests must be submitted via the HTA IT Platform by June 30, 2025. Templates for medical device submissions are available here. Briefing document is a more comprehensive dossier submitted after JSC request was approved. The briefing document is a more detailed dossier submitted after a JSC request has been approved. Templates for medical devices and in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) can be accessed here.

The full details can be found here.

EU HTA Publication Digest: Health technology assessment in Europe: A comparison of organizations and introduction to the European regulation

MTRC shares the most relevant and impactful publications in the field of market access and HEOR for medical technologies in Europe through its EU HTA Publications Digest. In a recent publication, Fernandez et al. conducted a cross-European survey of Health Technology Assessment (HTA) bodies to map organizational diversity and assess progress toward harmonization. Their findings reveal substantial variation in agency structures and processes, but also a strong move toward collaboration, which is expected to accelerate with the implementation of the EU HTA Regulation in 2025. These developments are anticipated to drive mutual learning and more efficient technology adoption, ultimately benefiting patients across Europe.

EU HTA Publication Digest: Ensuring the Efficiency and Effectiveness of Joint Clinical Assessment in National HTA Decision-Making: Insights from the 2024 CIRS Multi-Stakeholder Workshop

MTRC shares the most relevant and impactful publications in the field of market access and HEOR for medical technologies in Europe through its EU HTA Publications Digest. In a recent publication, Wang et al. conducted a survey and multi-stakeholder workshop to assess the readiness and strategic approaches of pharmaceutical companies regarding the Joint Clinical Assessment (JCA) under the new European HTA Regulation. Thirteen companies took part, reporting moderate preparedness for the JCA process (with readiness scores of 6–7 out of 10), but expressing concerns about uncertain timelines and challenges in integrating JCA outcomes into national processes. To support effective JCA implementation in national HTA decisions, the authors recommend creating a product-based scorecard for submission quality, increasing member state training, and promoting ongoing dialogue among key stakeholders.

EU HTA Publication Digest: Public Health Decision-Maker Perspective on Joint Clinical Assessments in Central European EU Member States

MTRC shares the most relevant and impactful publications in the field of market access and HEOR for medical technologies in Europe through its EU HTA Publications Digest. In a recent publication, Merész et al. examined the implementation of the EU HTA Regulation from the perspective of public health decision-makers in Central European member states. Their study highlighted both opportunities for enhanced cooperation and challenges related to timelines and scope differences across member states. The authors concluded that while foundations for successful collaboration exist, policymakers and payers must share the responsibility of acting as drivers of change in health policy to reduce duplication of efforts by health technology developers.
