16th HTAsiaLink Newsletter: Lessons from the Pandemic for HTA

The past 9th HTAsiaLink Annual Conference has been a big success, initiating the first hybrid conference in our HTAsiaLink history. However, unpredictable challenges still await, both existing and new coming issues. Omicron is one of them, provoking us to strive for more knowledge and evidence. As far as we have learned from the conference, we would like
to summarise them for those who may have missed the past event. Moreover, we have been honoured by Professor Guy Maddern, Current Chair of Asia Policy Forum HTAi, with extended contents from his session “After COVID: the path forward for HTA in the post-pandemic era”.
