Event

In a landscape of accelerated approvals, a less mature evidence base, and increasing reliance on real world evidence, obtaining judgements from clinical experts is becoming increasingly important to inform healthcare decision-making (HCDM). In the past, expert elicitation has generally been unstructured in nature, but growing demand has led to a desire to improve the robustness of the methods used. Structured expert elicitation has been identified by both NICE and CADTH as the preferred method for expert obtaining expert judgements on uncertain quantities, and it is expected that this type of data will be increasingly used to inform HTA submissions globally.

Considering this, we will provide an interactive demonstration of how SEE (the what, why, when and how) may be used in practice to inform HTA using publicly available resources. We will start by providing an introduction to SEE and run a live elicitation exercise to demonstrate the fundamentals of the method. The process will then be described in detail, with tips on how to choose the optimal approach based on specific research objectives. A publicly available elicitation tool developed by the University of York and Lumanity will then be demonstrated, and the audience will be given the opportunity to practice using the tool in a breakout exercise. The audience will have the opportunity to ask any remaining questions in a Q&A session at the end.
