Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what criteria are used to review NHS products by the NHS Clinical Evaluation Team.
This question was answered on 25th January 2017
Clinical criteria will vary dependent upon the product range to be reviewed. The Clinical Evaluation Team has published an operating manual which explains the process of developing defined clinical quality criteria for each product group and is described in stage 4 of their pathway, as set out on pages 23 - 24 of the operating manual.
