The Health Intervention and Technology Assessment Program (HITAP) was established in 2007 as a non-profit organization in order to take responsibility for appraising a wide range of health technologies and programs, including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, interventions, individual and community health promotion and disease prevention as well as social health policy. HITAP is an associate organization of the International Health Policy Program (IHPP), Thailand. Since 2013, the HITAP International Unit (HIU) has supported low- and middle-income country governments and international organizations for country capacity building and Health Technology Assessment (HTA). HITAP and HIU also focus on building networks and partnerships, such as with the regional HTA network HTAsiaLink, as well as international research collaborations.
