Executive summary

Ghana’s Ministry of Health (MoH) has been seeking to incorporate Health Technology Assessment (HTA) into its decision-making process to achieve Universal Health Coverage. To support this effort, the MoH has collaborated with the Health Intervention and Technology Assessment Program (HITAP) and the Access and Delivery Partnership (ADP) to develop a five-year strategy and design appropriate governance structures for HTA in Ghana. The collaboration was set up in two phases, and the first phase of cooperation happened in December 2022 when the delegates from Ghana’s HTA team visited Thailand to learn from HITAP’s experience and understand the HTA system in Thailand.
This report aims to document the second phase of collaboration between HITAP and MoH Ghana with support from ADP, where HITAP hosted a topic selection workshop, communication training, and HTA proposal development workshop for relevant HTA stakeholders in Ghana from 2nd to 6th October 2023. This report summarizes the workshop, including presentations, activities, discussions, and plans for the next steps, which will be helpful for the HTA development in Ghana. Supporting documents, including the program, list of participants, and photos, are provided in the Annexures.
