Evaluation
Evaluation 2025
In 2025, the independent, non-profit and autonomous research institute WPZ Research GmbH conducted a comprehensive review of the institute – both in terms of the methodological and content-related quality of its work and the efficiency of its work and use of resources.
Regular external evaluations constitute an essential element of our quality assurance framework. The AIHTA (as LBI-HTA) has successfully undergone three evaluations. A further evaluation is currently in progress and is expected to be concluded shortly.
