telephone interviews - needs assessment
When asked if time was limited (in any
part of the appraisal process),
PhD research intro
interviewees responded:
A journey (MA)
“Time is always limited”
A journey (PhD)
or Current work
“Yes, is the short answer!” Opportunities
All five interviewees stated that time was
always limited for decision-makers to
familiarise themselves with the necessary
information before an appraisal
committee.

telephone interviews - needs assessment
PhD research intro

The most commonly mentioned type of A journey (PhD)
data that needed to be compared to
another was the ICER, the overall Current work
measure of the cost-effectiveness of an Opportunities
intervention.
66. NICE technical advisors

Complexity was related to clinical PhD research intro
effectiveness by three of the five
A journey (MA)
interviewees. The data presented in
systematic reviews of clinical A journey (PhD)
effectiveness was reported to be quite
problematic to present. This is likely to be Current work
the case particularly where there are Opportunities
different subgroups of people that are of
interest in the analysis, or where the trials
reviewed used a large number of different
outcome measures.

would be useful or confusing for a decision-
maker at NICE?
The most common idea mentioned (by PhD research intro
participants 1, 4 and 6) was that the graphic
A journey (MA)
would give decision-makers an idea of what was
A journey (PhD)
‘driving’ the model, and why the costs per QALY
(or ICER) were high or not. Participant 3 thought Current work
that giving the decision makers an idea of how Opportunities
costs and QALYs were accrued over time was
something that they were not currently able to
see.
