Evidence is not enough: health technology reassessment to de-implement low-value care
Evidence is not enough to achieve de-implementation of LVC. This has made health technology assessment agencies and health care organizations widen the scope of HTR to encompass strategies to facilitate de-implementation, including involving key stakeholders in the HTR process and taking actions to support de-implementation. Despite these efforts, there can still be resistance to de-implementation of LVC in passive forms, involving continued use of the practice and more active resistance such as continued funding and opinion-making opposing de-implementation. Knowledge from implementation and de-implementation research can offer guidance in how to support the execution phase of HTR.
