DHSC to host MedTech Strategy webinar

The Medical Technologies Directorate at the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is hosting a webinar on Monday 6 March at 11am to promote the recently published Medical Technology Strategy.

The government’s inaugural Medical Technology Strategy sets out how it will ensure the health and social care system can reliably access safe, effective and innovative medical technologies that support the continued delivery of high-quality care, outstanding patient safety and excellent patient outcomes in a way that makes the best use of taxpayer money.

David Lawson, Director for Medical Technology, will be joined by a panel of:

  • Matt Whitty - Chief Executive of the AAC and Director of NHS Innovation, Research and Life Sciences, NHS England
  • Mark Chapman - Interim Director of Medical Technology and Digital Evaluation, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)
  • Luella Trickett -  Director, Value & Access, Association of British HealthTech Industries (ABHI)
  • Doris-Ann Williams - Chief Executive, The British In Vitro Diagnostic Association (BIVDA).

The panel will discuss the strategy and what it means for the wider sector. This will be followed by a Q&A session; if you have any questions for the panel ahead of time please send them via the registration form below.
