In Austria, health economic evaluations have so far played only a limited role, partly due to the absence of a corresponding guideline. Guidelines provide methodological standards for the conduct and assessment of health economic evaluations. Their overarching objectives are to ensure quality, promote methodological standardisation, and enhance transparency, while at the same time taking context-specific aspects into account. To achieve this and develop an Austrian guideline, a systematic development and implementation process involving stakeholders across the healthcare system is essential.
