Abstract

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is established in English law to provide national guidance and advice to improve health and social care. From its inception in 1999, NICE has committed to support the participation of patients, carers (informal caregivers) and people who use health and care services in shaping its guidance, of which HTA is one example. NICE has a policy outlining its approach to patient and carer involvement in its decision-making (NICE 2013a). NICE’s Public Involvement Programme (NICE 2016a) provides direct support, resources and training to the patients and patient organisations who participate in NICE’s work.
