Conclusions Hospital decision-makers are able to describe their informational needs The domains of EUnetHTA’s Core Model cover most of the informational needs, but a tenth domain covering political and strategic issues was identified as well The relative importance that hospital decision-makers assign to the different criteria is rarely examined directly (n = 3) Not all criteria/domains are of equal importance to hospital decision-makers – clinical, economic and political/strategic aspects occur most frequently in our literature review. The importance of clinical and economic aspects is confirmed in studies of relative importance – they are consistently valued among top 3 by hospital decision-makers. Information on the social and ethical aspects were rarely considered most important. www.adhophta.eu
