Authors' objectives: The aim of this paper is to identify and analyse the processes and decision criteria used for priority setting internationally in order to establish a comprehensive set of strategic criteria and practical approaches that could serve as a starting point for the development of the Spanish prioritisation framework.
Authors' recommendations: Although it is acknowledged that there are no standardised processes for priority setting, some general consensus and common trends have been identi ed regarding key elements (criteria, models and strategies, key actors, etc.). The following work provides a thorough analysis of these approaches and offers recommendations regarding considerations for implementing successful HTA prioritisation approaches. Findings are envisioned to be useful for HTA organisms but also for other public organisations that are aiming to establish health care priorities.
