Which health technologies are eligible for Joint Scientific Consultation?

Health technologies are deemed eligible for Joint Scientific Consultations based on two criteria:

  • First, the health technology must be likely to be the subject of subsequent Joint Clinic Assessment in accordance with Article 7(1). This includes medicinal products, medical devices, and in vitro diagnostic medical devices with clearly defined authorisations and classifications. 
  • Second, clinical studies and clinical investigations relating to the health technology must still be in the planning stage (Article 16(2)).
