Abstract

Healthcare is moving towards increased assistance needs with limited resources, both in economics terms, in personnel or space terms, leading to the usage of specific analysis for the acquisition, evaluation and assessment of medical technologies. The systematic evaluation of properties, effects or other impacts of a medical (or health) technology with a broad multidisciplinary approach is named Health Technology Assessment (HTA).This work presents an approach of a HTA protocol for the classification of hospitals or health facilities equipments, realized by combining the classic HTA concepts with hierarchic clustering techniques in a multidisciplinary analysis of requirements, cost, impact of logistics, technology associated risks.
