IMMEDIATE RESPONSE

Immediate response short reports are health technology assessment reports requested by a department of the Canary Islands Health Service (General Directorate, Service, Unit, Hospital, Management) and are prepared in less than a month. They are prepared in a short space of time and are called immediate response due to the need to make a prompt health policy decision and/or because there is no uncertainty about the scientific evidence.
